This is something to combat sooner than later before we don't feel like it or don't feel like liking people anymore. The "I hate people", "People are stupid", "Awkward" and other memes are taking their toll on people and how they relate to each other which is a key concern that I've been trying to deal with by seeing if people are interested in reversing it. I believe they are and just need to figure out how. I know that people can demonstrate empathy consistently in polite, brief and validating ways non-verbally which can help with verbal and other forms of empathy so people get along better and feel happier more often too.

What, Me Care? Young Are Less Empathetic: Scientific American

www.scientificamerican.com

A recent study finds a decline in empathy among young people in the U.S.

The types of information we consume have also shifted in recent decades; specifically, Americans have abandoned reading in droves. The number of adults who read literature for pleasure sank below 50 percent for the first time ever in the past 10 years, with the decrease occurring most sharply among college-age adults. And reading may be linked to empathy. In a study published earlier this year psychologist Raymond A. Mar of York University in Toronto and others demonstrated that the number of stories preschoolers read predicts their ability to understand the emotions of others. Mar has also shown that adults who read less fiction report themselves to be less empathic.

Whereas the sources of empathic decline are impossible to pinpoint, the work of Konrath and Twenge demonstrates that the American personality is shifting in an ominous direction. Still, we are not doomed to become a society of self-obsessed loners. Konrath points out that if life choices can drive empathy down, then making different choices could nurture it. “The fact that empathy is declining means that there’s more fluidity to it than previously thought,” she says. “It means that empathy can change. It can go up.”

What do you do for others that you ask for donations?

Hi [redacted], thanks for your question. I think I deserve to be financially supported by people because when nobody else was or is saying or doing anything about it and people are having trouble communicating, I've been saving women and girls from mostly male stalkers and recently more female ones for the last two years; trying to convince men and boys to stop trying to get credit for using female body language when they don't give each other much and then harass females trying to steal it; and bouncing ideas off people to figure out how to improve how we communicate and save our normal masculinity and femininity before they're gone forever. I even stopped most of it myself in downtown Toronto last summer by September 2012 so I know I can, but then I ran out of money and it started up again in November. If I get donations then I can do more than just house, feed and transport my big mouth places to stop this stuff temporarily since that proves people don't really want to act like this. Instead I'll operate as a not-for-profit by putting up signs that say "Men and Women Should Walk With and Not Against Each Other", work on t-shirts, music, stand up comedy, politics and more stuff that can work, or pay others to get involved. While nobody can be sure, Irying to stop the "zombie apocalypse" we joke about so much since it seems to be playing out in real-time right before our eyes, I'm often ahead of my time on things so we might finally be speaking about this openly sooner or later. it might check out my website for more --

Oops, I meant "I'm trying to stop the..." but slipped and hit "enter". Anyway, you get the idea. I've told some people who've seen me and asked what I'm up to what I'm doing. While they seem to understand and hundreds a day quietly say hello, for some strange reason most have a mental block against discussing this and don't say much when I honestly respond. Men seem ashamed and women seem scared, so I'd like to fix this fast. Women and girls are now also switching from exchanging vulnerability for power when they flirt, which they used to love doing, to quickly and trickily scratching, picking, wiping, coughing, sneezing, spazzing and running when they get attention, which is hard to get credit for, which is also why they're stalking each other more too. While I've been laying low and swearing off doing this unless I get financial support from the people I'm helping, I was at Yorkdale minding my own business and looking for jobs on my laptop when tons of people started saying hello, many in weird, pushy and tricky ways. So, after ignoring some I started reacting to people like I normally do and shut it down there too, or helped people realize they don't have to do this stuff even if it's in style, after which they relax and say hello to me and each other in more relaxed, relaxing, respectful and validating ways, including women and girls who go back to getting attention in ways that can get them credit. That's it in a nutshell, so instead of people worrying about this stuff and what might happen next, they can simply support me so they don't have to, even anonymously. Once people non-verbally interact better I think it will help us verbally interact better too, or they seem related from what I can tell. As I said, please see my website for more, help me out and/or be in touch with any questions -- Thanks! --
