meta empathy

The ability for a person to simultaneously consider their own position, feelings, motivations, etc. as well as those of another person (or group of people).

Transfinite-Empathy

A condition of empathy that is above hyper-empathy in some regards but not in others. A person with transfinite-empathy is able to feel any emotion, even if there is seemingly no connection between them and someone feeling that emotion. In this regard, it is above hyper-empathy. However, due to it not necessarily implying the ability to be high alert for negative emotions, it is not above it in all aspects. Depending on the cause, it may or may not still imply the ability to be fully connected and in tune with a person's emotions. A transfinite-empathic person does not need external stimuli to feel emotions and can feel emotions that the situation would not usually be able to evoke.

Origin: "Transfinite" (chosen due to it not being above "Hyper" in all regards but still above it in some) + Empathy.
As someone with transfinite-empathy, I can feel whatever emotion my character would and be the best actor possible.

Selective Empathy

That counts as a citation.
Hym "Ultra-Omega Psychology Genius! That entire segment about selective empathy is downstream from my thing! How am I THIS GOOD at everything!? I have to have like 1 million citations at this point. Wait, is it 937 kills or is it 937 PhDs? Assists? No, that would suck. 937 isn't a lot of assists...So, it's gotta be PhDs. 937 PhDs! The single greatest psychologizer in the history of humanity!"

No Empathy or Sympathy

Exactly, except YOU are a crippled talkshow host and I am not. Hey, I have an idea! Why not do an episode on why the AI works now when it didn't before? Oh! To keep the guy who did it from being more successful that you and it might implicate you in burying a story that would have prevented a school shooting? Wow! You're clearly the good one and he is the bad one.
Hym "Hey! I have no empathy or sympathy either! Good thing they need me for the AI and people like having alive kids! Hey, did your former employees press charges from sexual battery yet? Because they should do that."
