I don't have a problem with compassion, but when these types of people end up on school boards or decide to enter politics, they're a threat. I'm not cool with more people like the cast of circus characters we have now, who dominate the news with space laser headlines. Their ideologies aren't so benign when they gain access to schools or government. My compassion is very conditional when it comes to preserving reality.
Good topic.
Do you believe some of these people will need treatment or therapy at some point? I've read some studies that suggest Qanon people may get irreversibly damaged, though some come to their senses on their own.
