Abuse and Aggression Disguised as Empathy
[LibertysTorch] Weaponized Empathy is probably the chief cultural problem of our time. Empathy is used to justify all manner of atrocious behaviors on the part of Neo-Marxists. For instance, racism is perfectly justifiable if applied to a white person. You may stereotype and demean someone so long as their skin color is pale enough, and any attempt to deflect this behavior will result in accusations of not having empathy for folks of darker complexion.
Cancel Culture ensures that it is seen as entirely legitimate to use a political hate mob to destroy a person’s business, employability, reputation, and relationships provided, of course, that empathy to the marginalized is given as an excuse. James Bond supposedly had a license to kill. Neo-Marxists have a license to cancel. They throw themselves into the task with joy and gusto.
Some readers may remember Pajama Boy of Obamacare fame. His quote encapsulates this view nicely:
