About this item
A sharp Christian voice makes a bold argument: when politics are driven by empathy rather than truth, innocent people pay the price.. We are told that empathy is the highest virtue - the key to being a good person. Is that true? Or has "empathy," like so many other words of our day - "tolerance," "justice," "acceptance" - been hijacked by bad actors who exploit compassion for their own political ends? . In Toxic Empathy, Allie Beth Stuckey argues that empathy has become a tool of manipulation by left-wing activists who bully people into believing that they must adopt progressive positions to be loving. She explores the five most heated issues through which toxic empathy is deployed: abortion, gender, sexuality, immigration, and social justice.
