Indifference means ignorance?

This is not the grey man
I have been told that the grey man lives in ignorance due to his indifference to the others. I want to clarify these two concepts, because the grey man hates ignorance and ignorant people.

Saying that the grey man does not care about other people lives does not mean he does not know what is happening to them, to feel indifference you have to know how are they, how are their lives. But indifference implies also doing nothing about. 

If the grey man was an ignorant he would not know how the others feel, but he knows it.

But if you think that knowing how people feel and doing nothing means to be an ignorant then you can claim: the grey man is an indifferent ignorant, or e the grey man is a conscious ignorant.

Have animals empathy?

Grey's man slogan
I would say that the majority of the population in the world feel empathy, some people feel it more and other feel it less. Well, I do not know if animals feel empathy, I do not think so. The grey man neither, he can not feel it, for him it does not exist. 

So, is the grey man an animal? Of course not, he is intelligent, he does not do his actions due to his instincs; has he conscience? I will talk about it later.
So, how does he see the other people? It is easy, they are other humans, with their lifes. 

Their lifes does not concern him, he just wants to live his life.He cares only of himself. Now I think about ecology. As i have said, I am not sure how the moral of the grey man is, or if he even has it; the same way I do not know what he thinks of nature. Probably his conscience and moral are related to his ecologism.

Is the grey man narcissistic?

From left to right: narcissist and the grey man.


I would not say that the grey man is a narcissistic, maybe he has some behaviours in common, but he does not have a narcissists main conduct.
The grey man has not the necessity of being admired by other people, as we know, he has no feelings and does not want to have strong relations with people. 

Maybe being admired does not build a very strong relation between 2 people, but it is a strong sensation, and the grey man thinks it could be harmful for him. He also has not a big ego, he prefers his non-unhappiness state, where he feels comfortable.

While narcissists feel themselves superior and especial, the grey man feels himself a bit especial, not thinking about he is superior,  but thinking that not many people can understand how he thinks (I don't say how he feels because the grey man does not want to have feelings).

About manipulating people for his own good, well, the grey man has no feelings, I am not sure if not having feelings implies not having morality. I would say that this would depend on who the grey man is. He does not feel empathy, will he feel remorses? Is he a psycopath? Probably, but I do not understand a psycopaths as killers or assassins, I understand them as people who do not appreciate other people emotionally.

The grey man is not narcissistic. The grey man has no feelings, narcissists love themselves, the grey man can not feel love, so he can not be a narcissist.
Note that at the photo they share a part of themselves.
