Just finished @GadSaad’s Suicidal Empathy and it hit me like a truck .this is exactly what’s wrong with the West .

Remember that scene in the 2004 movie I, Robot (inspired by Isaac Asimov) ?
Car plunges into the river. A man and a 12-year-old girl are drowning.
The robot runs cold calculations: the man has a 45% chance of survival, the little girl only 11%. So it saves the man and lets the girl die.
Will Smith’s character is disgusted.
“You let her die?!”
The robot replies without a shred of emotion:
“I calculated the odds.”
That robot was more sane than modern Western civilization.
Today we’ve gone full suicidal empathy - we don’t calculate odds at all.
We’re drowning in deranged, misplaced compassion.
We protect criminals over victims, invaders over citizens, feelings over facts, and the 11% case every single fucking time.
We’d rather watch our entire society sink than be accused of not being “kind” enough.
The robot wasn’t the monster.
We are.
We’ve replaced survival instinct with performative, self-destructive kindness • and we’re proudly marching toward civilizational suicide while patting ourselves on the back for being so virtuous.
A society that cares more about infinite empathy than its own survival is a society that deserves to die.
And we’re sprinting toward exactly that.
Read the book.
Wake up.
