Suicidal Empathy: Dr. Gad Saad’s Warning to America

June 2, 2026·20 min
Episode Description from the Publisher

The West is dying to be kind. Dr. Gad Saad joins Erick Stakelbeck to expose the dangerous ideology behind his explosive new book, Suicidal Empathy: Dying to Be Kind—and why America and the West are destroying themselves in the name of compassion. From anti-Semitism and open borders to radical gender ideology, Islamist migration, socialism, and the collapse of common sense, Dr. Saad warns that the West is being infected by “parasitic ideas” that lead not to kindness—but to civilizational suicide.   As a Lebanese-born immigrant who fled chaos and found freedom in the West, Dr. Saad brings a powerful warning: America is not the default setting of history.    Freedom is rare. Civilization is fragile. And if we don’t fight for it, we can lose it. This is a clarion call for courage, truth, and moral sanity in an age of madness. Learn more about your ad choices.
