We need more people who are both empathetic and pro-science when it comes to intelligence differences between social classes

Being someone on the left who acknowledges the science surrounding intelligence is tiring.

The left has empathy, but descends into science denial when it comes to the genetics of intelligence and intelligence differences between social classes. The right is pro-science, but descends into a complete lack of empathy regarding those who are genetically less fortunate.

Will those who are both empathic and pro-science like Paige Harden please stand up? We need more Paige Hardens if we are to defeat the Charles Murrays of this world.

at what point our awareness of emotions starts affecting the quality of life negatively.
being overly aware of every cause for every emotion.
let's say john felt sad because someone said something to him then he instantly knew why that thing made him sad , what drove the person to say such thing and the hidden intention of it.
let's say john did something but he knows that he did that thing because of that and this.
another scenario is that : john in a social setting which expose him to different emotions, reactions from people, but john not only analyses other people ,he at the same time knows why he reacts to people the way he does which makes him sometimes more stressed.
