Empathy is defined as "the ability to share and understand the feelings of another". The fact that you refuse to acknowledge the emotional manipulation and the reasons for why Emerald has done this actually means that you are not being empathetic in this case.

So while the victims of Beacon have your sympathy as victims of a tragedy, you aren't really empathising with the characters.
