Technology can help increase empathy. At least I think it can. I hope it can.<p>That technology might help. Maybe by sharing the marginalized stories of vulnerable people.<p>We&#x27;ve tried fear and anger to stop these kind of things, but it&#x27;s just like a whack-a-mole. Why don&#x27;t we try empathy and understanding?<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=9IgOVOPLTYI" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=9IgOVOPLTYI</a><p>disclaimer: My heart goes out to all of those touched by needless violence. I in no way endorse violence of any kind, and the perpetrators of such deserve to be caught, tried, and if guilty, locked away for the rest of their lives. That said, those that do overt violence are not the root of the problem. They have (or had) friends and family that could have steered them in a different direction.
