Grief tragedy sympathy industry

Cops learn that if they break down and cry to a shrink after using their weapons, they get support, and both cops and civilians that know they will be on TV know just how to break down at the right time and "express" sorrow for what they did, thinking that will make them less wrong. When was the last time you heard a cop or a civilian that shot an unarmed protestor or black guy say

"Not a day goes by that I don't feel absolutely no remorse about what I did, they got what was coming to them!" The reason you never hear that on TV is nobody wants to make what's coming for them any worse than what it is, nobody wants to intensify what is coming for them.

Something you never hear on TV's grief tragedy sympathy industry-

Armed Civilian- Yea I shot the son of a bitch, so what, who cares. Gimme the electric chair, hang me, or shut the fuck up you fucking cunt!

Judge- I will do as you wish, I will sentence you to death, you will get what you deserve without further adieu!

Sympathy Rapist

A stranger, or acquaintance that preys upon others for their sympathy, without regard to their familiarity with the person.

Kyle is such a sympathy rapist. He just walks up to people he doesn't know, and starts telling them about his problems so that someone will feel bad for him.

The Udder of Sympathy

When one is going through a life struggle and is thirsty for sympathy. Like how a calf has an extreme thirst for it's mother's udder milk.

In most common cases this is illustrated through the likes of social media.

"Sophie broke up with her boyfriend and posted a status about it on facebook. With the help of her friend's supportive comments and 1026 likes, Sophie felt replenished from the udder of sympathy can now continue on with her fucking life"

Grief/tragedy/sympathy industry

The industry that wants control of all sides of the story, therefore the media claims to tell all sides of the story and be on everyone's side.

What the media and grief/tragedy/sympathy industry won't tell people is how on their own they really are, and how the industry doesn't give a fuck about them, it's a machine that depends on them to keep running.

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."

You have no sympathy

It's funny that you keep saying that because that's one of the last things I said to my mother in her fit of drunken denial. She's a bitch and a narcissist.

Hym " 'You have no sympathy' I said to my narcissistic mother. And she said nothing because she knew I was right and my stepfather cried because HE ALSO KNEW I WAS RIGHT. Regardless of what happens with this I'm going to make sure I'm not around. Functionally an orphan. Like, the video game. Orphan: Scion of Sorcerery. Hi Melissa! Hi Mark! Go fuck yourselves!"

Sympathy therapy

Verbally expressing sympathy in an exaggerated way in order to make the sufferer laugh but also realize that whining doesn’t help.

I’m SO sorry you’re going through this! NO one understands the pain you’re in and the obstacles you face! You seriously have it worse right now than anyone else in the world! Is this sympathy therapy working yet?
