It is called self-awareness mixed with empathy.

Simply put, you ain't goin through shit compared to folks whose rights are being stripped away; who fear for their lives; who are being dumped on and ignored.

If you disagree on the Warren issue-- it simply means that you do not even begin to realize the suffering.
