There was that study that shows the more right leaning someone is, the less empathy they have for people, animals and things outside of their immediate few circles (friends of friends kind of thing).

Democrats are essentially just republicans as well but with a bit of pink/green washing/performative action going on so.

They can be summed up as:
Repub: I don't care unless it affects me and mine then I'll bleat asking why no-one is doing anything about it.
Dems: I'll pretend to care but won't actually do anything to tackle the underlying causes but will nod caringly with a bit of a sad face
