You know that the words empathy and sympathy predates NVC, which makes it obvious that it doesn't own the definition of that words?
What is your motivation to bring NVC up here in every post?
Aren't sympathy and empathy emotional processes that can't be observed directly? What justification do you have to assume that a certain behavior is symptom of one, but the other?
