West Teeters on Brink: 'Suicidal Empathy' Blamed for Cultural Collapse, Expert Warns
Author and scholar Gad Saad warns that 'suicidal empathy' is pushing the West towards collapse, citing factors such as reactions to Hamas attacks and gender ideology.
Gad Saad warns that 'suicidal empathy,' a concept he defines as prioritizing the feelings and needs of others over one's own well-being, is contributing to the collapse of Western civilization through its influence on issues like the recent Hamas attacks, gender ideology, and diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives. This emphasis on emotional vulnerability, according to Saad, has led to a decline in critical thinking, free speech, and the rule of law. The author argues that this trend poses a significant threat to the survival of Western societies. Saad believes that if left unchecked, it could lead to the collapse of these civilizations.
