READ BY THE AUTHOR

The bestselling author of The Parasitic Mind shows why empathy in politics leads to civilizational collapse.

What happens when a society elevates victimhood to a virtue and decides that punishment is cruel? You get the disease Dr. Gad Saad calls suicidal empathy. And the West may be terminally infected.

In his new book, Suicidal Empathy, Saad unleashes a blistering critique of maladaptively irrational altruism that has gripped our culture. This mind parasite hijacked the empathy module of our progressive elite, leading to a catastrophic miscalibration of moral priorities. The results are everywhere: from coddling violent criminals to protecting rapists to branding self-defense as toxic behavior. We are witnessing a civilization in rapid decline. Lunatic policies are instituted because we prioritize the feelings of ostensibly marginalized groups over The Truth, criminals over victims, and squatters over homeowners. This is not humane; it’s an active dismantling of the pillars that keep us safe and free.

This crisis of empathy creates a horrifying system of inverse morality where the strong and successful are demonized, and the destructive are celebrated. Just look at the insane inversions we tolerate daily: we prefer illegal migrants over our own legal citizens and veterans, permit drug addicts to threaten children’s safety in parks, and elevate transgender 'women' above biological women in sports and safe spaces. Common sense is dying in a deluge of misguided compassion.

Suicidal Empathy is your wake-up call. Stop ignoring your survival instincts in the name of political correctness. This isn't just misguided policy; it is the ultimate expression of a culture actively choosing its own demise.

A very important book. This will interest anyone who values common sense skepticism, and scientific critical thinking. If you are curious about what motivates the mass hysteria we have all witnessed recently, this book is for you. Highly recommended.

This was a highly anticipated book from the great Dr Gad Saad and it doesn't disappoint. He gives a sobering diagnosis of the West’s most dangerous delusion...the belief that endless, one-sided empathy will somehow save us. He exposes how this pathological compassion is actively dismantling our societies, eroding borders, institutions, and common sense itself. I highly recommend this book and I was very pleased to see that Dr Saad narrated his book this time out, which I thoroughly enjoyed.

A necessary book for the times we live in.

The concepts presented in a professorial manner are so pertinent to our present cultural trajectory. Many people need to be informed and begin the process of reversing the trend to save our Western Civilization.
