There it is ! Why not just empathize, assuming it costs you nothing.
Except it does not "cost nothing". It creates a society where people are free to make up whatever BS they want and demand compensation and/or punishment of the innocent. A fair society requires balance and a willingness to tell people they should just "grow up and stop whining" when it is appropriate. More importantly, allowing the word to be used in contexts where it is not appropriate debases the meaning of the word so people who do deserve a lot more support will find that society less willing to provide it because of the shysters.
