Suicidal Empathy | Gad Saad on Islam, Antisemitism, Joe Rogan & How Good People Get It Wrong
About this episode
Gad Saad's Suicidal Empathy just became an instant #1 New York Times bestseller — and the thesis is as urgent as it is disturbing: the West is being dismantled not by its enemies, but by its own misguided compassion.
Ami sits down with Professor Gad Saad to unpack what's really going on. They cover the Marxist roots of suicidal empathy and how it destroys personal agency, why antisemitism is like a shingles virus — dormant until the conditions are right — and why the concept of "radical Islam" is a comforting lie we need to stop telling. Islam is Islam. Individuals choose how seriously to follow it.
They also get into what really happened when Gad spent three hours on Joe Rogan's show trying to counter a tsunami of anti-Israel voices. Why Tucker Carlson and Megyn Kelly's turns were genuinely surprising. Whether audience capture and personal slights — not ideology — drive most of these betrayals. And the only real path back.
