Is #empathy a #sin? Some #conservative #Christians argue it can be

Empathy is usually regarded as a #virtue, a key to human #decency & #kindness. And yet, with increasing momentum, voices on the #ChristianRight are preaching that it has become a #vice.

AP News · Conservative Christians argue empathy can be a sinSome voices on the Christian right are arguing the virtue of empathy has become a vice. Those Christians claim empathy can manipulate people into accepting what they see as sins, like abortion access and LGBTQ+ rights. Conservative evangelicals Allie Beth Stuckey and Joe Rigney have written books within the past year criticizing certain forms of empathy. Stuckey's and Rigney's views have gained traction among President Donald Trump’s Christian base as his Republican administration enacts hard-line policies. Progressive Christian leaders emphasize empathy is central to Jesus' teachings, countering claims it's harmful or sinful.

Hmm...

"Nobody knows", but it's an interesting dynamic, and a glimmer of hope the #cult may yield to #CognitiveDissonance & #truth

This argument is really scraping the barrel and is so off point it’s not even funny. I shouldn’t have to mention that other leaders such as Pol Pot, Stalin, and many others, all ate meat. If the diet of dictators are important to measure how we should be eating, then surely meat is right off the menu too?

The dissonance of relaxing on vacation while genocide, ecocide, and inflation rage on? It’s unbearable—unless you choose not to see it.

I just returned from the beach. Here’s what that felt like in 2025. :earth:

Dispatch from Dystopia: 2 – Back from a Beach Vacation

Twenty-seven. That’s the number of Palestinians murdered by Israeli “Defense” Forces while trying desperately to get food aid so their families wouldn’t starve. (The Guardian) It’s the last headline I see before sitting down to dinner.

For the third time, I asked my four-year-old daughter to sit down and eat her food. I didn’t have to wait in line or brave sniper fire from scared young people forced into a situation that will haunt their dreams for as long as they live. A simple trip to pick up takeout from a local restaurant, ordered online, of course, takes on a new, bitter resonance in the global web of food injustice.

We’ve just returned from our vacation, a beach trip. The dissonance required to go on vacation and relax in the world is almost unbearable. I felt I had to write. To do something to ease the burden of knowingly participating in a system that has so effectively institutionalized suffering.

#CognitiveDissonance demands a lot of energy to sustain a blatantly false set of beliefs - in this case a whole web of 'fake' reality spewed by Sir #TrumpVirus & his #GQP / #media #cult

It's easy enough, & 'normal', to dismiss one statement as "a lie"/untrue if it does not comport with an existing belief. One convinces oneself s/he is right, and the other 'side' or idea must be incorrect.

With Sir, everyone on earth is lying - or he is. Even MAGATs are exhausted.

> Trump disputes WSJ report on Bessent talking him out of firing Powell

Because, in Sir #TrumpVirus' own terrific words, “People don’t explain to me, I explain to them!” [See Reference 1/2]

Stated in a textbook nod to "Dunning-Kruger". [See Reference 2/2 below]

And Speaking of #psychology, think #CognitiveDissonance.

Either EVERYONE on earth, networks, journalists, comedians - EVERYBODY lies, or else, maybe, just maybe... he does (?!)

#Truth is a powerful cleanser...
Healthier than hate.

Climate litigation isn’t ‘activist lawfare’, it’s democracy at work. The oil, coal and gas industries have strategically ducked and weaved litigation for decades, but the law is catching up with them.

Droppie [infosec] 🐨:archlinux: :kde: :firefox_nightly: :thunderbird: :vegan:​

Forget climate denial, Labor’s tactical fatalism will burn us all. The climate movement is ill-equipped to deal with a threat that looks like this. Any fantasy we had of a global moral pact of good intentions is dead.

Many serious wildfires in Western Canada, lots of evacuations, loss of properties, no doubt air quality problems will be spreading far and wide with the smoke.
And yet-- Drill Baby Drill! let's build more pipelines! Short term profit (conveniently ignoring all the financial loss from the climate disruption!) is still the only metric people seem to understand 😞
