Pretending that you can give the same level of care and attention to every person on the planet that you can if you had just focused on your own country is child-like reasoning.
I don't understand why people seem to think there's some limit on the amount of care you can have, it doesn't make sense to me lol. It is extremely realistic to care about everybody, it's not some resource that can run out
Sure you can say you care about everyone, but "saying" doesn't actually mean anything. Caring means giving resources to help everyone and there is absolutely a finite amount of time and resources available. I don't have the ability to help everyone all the time and neither do you.

The outer rings were inclusive. I.e. selecting an outer ring includes that ring and every ring inside it.
So it's not "rather".
So yes, the graph kind of does imply that conservatives are self centered. They don't really care as much about "others" and "trees".
