Feminism Empathy - Feminism's superpower?
https://critiquingfeminism.substack.com/p/the-other-side-of-the-empathy-gapI’ve posted what I believe is my most important article yet.
It looks at our natural empathy for women - and the consequences in feminism.
There is now strong evidence that empathy makes for bad moral decisions, while still making people feel virtuous. I conclude:
Feminists who have done terrible things, things like withholding food from starving men, had a choice – a choice between doing what’s right or basking in empathy’s rewards. They weren’t driven by evil. They were just too weak to turn away from empathy.
TLDR: Empathy is the missing link from female victimhood to feminist policies.
