Everyone else is a villain huh? I’m petty sure the author thinks their view should be self-evident and doesn’t understand why do many people here seem to take actions the author would never consider.
I therefore think the point of the meme is to bring some levity into what would otherwise be helpless frustration.
Have some empathy. Don’t think everyone is bitter and miserable.
I empathize with everyone who gets stressed out in election season. These things matter and sometimes it feels like no matter what we do, we’re going to lose, but then other times it doesn’t. It’s a wild ride, and if people want to make things and upload them to social media to relieve their stress, high five. If they get the details wrong, then they’ll get called out in the comments section. That’s life, everyone knows it, no big deal.
If we’re going to preach empathy, maybe we should start by trying to understand the people who are watching their homeland get bombed into rubble with the support of both major parties, not the people sharing snide memes.
Take it as this; when one person says, “you should be less harsh on these people, many of them are seeing their homeland destroyed,” and another replies, “they don’t care, they just want to lash out at them to make themselves feel better,” if you jump in to defend the latter group, it gives the impression that you have more sympathy for the latter group than the former.

Do you only have the capacity to empathize with a limited amount of people owe day or how an I to understand your comment?

It would, but that’s not what happened.
