Saad Truth: Empathy Overload in the West
Description
Gad Saads new book, Suicidal Empathy: Dying to Be Kind, warns of the dangers of unchecked empathy without boundaries, which he believes is harming the West.

He cites examples like prioritizing foreign gang members over homeless vets and open borders that strain resources. Saad, who has been critical of cultural relativism and postmodernism, announced hes moving from Canada to the US due to backlash against his views. He calls for recalibrating empathy to protect Western values and freedoms.
