Anti-LGBTQ+ Christian activist Sean Feucht said in a video published on September 29 that the entire state of Minnesota has been “hijacked with toxic empathy towards … the LGTBQ community,” Muslims, and “so many other groups” that have allegedly “hijacked the niceness or the empathy of the church.
…
I am more worried about these morons highjacking tolerance.
wasn’t there a whole parable about empathy re: dives and lazarus or something like that? idk i’m not a bible expert like these pastors, obviously.
Ahhhh yes my favorite part of the Bible is how the religion was created from lack of empathy. These people are creating their own demise.
Not soon enough
Love thy neighbor unless they’re fucking queer or brown.
But…Jesus was brown…and probably gay, too.
Empathy is only toxic to trash humans.
Toxic empathy is my new username.
What makes empathy toxic?
If it’s for the “wrong” recipients.
That’s sonservatives in a nut shell. Their whole world view is based on the conviction, that their ways are the correct ones which everyone has to live by. No exceptions.
“Puritanism: The haunting fear that someone, somewhere, may be happy.”What he wants people to hear is “empathy misapplied to those who do not deserve it”. What he’s really trying to do is normalize psychopathy and Machiavellianism.
Conservatives are biologically unable to experience empathy. That’s why conservatives refer to empathy as fake or evil. They really do believe that because they cannot experience it.
A lack of empathy is why conservative relationships are so shallow. Conservatives love their families as property, not as humans with whom they can empathize. A conservative man loves his wife the way a teenager loves a sportscar. It’s a strong emotion, but it is not a deep emotional bond. A deep emotional bond is impossible without some amount of empathy.
This biological inability to experience empathy is also why bigotry comes so easily for conservatives. It’s why genocide comes so easily to them. It’s why war comes so easily to them. It’s how they are able to genuinely delight in the suffering of the vulnerable.
Understand that a conservative will never see a normal person as a human, because they cannot humanize others.
It is not only immoral to keep a relationship with a conservative, it is deadly dangerous. They do not value your life and never will. Because they simply can’t.
“Toxic Empathy,” just what Jesus always warned about🤣
Yes, I recall the passage clearly. “Love thy neighbor,” he said, “Unless the fucker is brown or queer. Then fuck 'em up!”
“Blessed are the powerful, for we kick ass”
Ah yes, as Jesus famously said “Love thy neighbor… unless theyre like gay or muslim or something”
Treat others how you want to be treated…unless the others are gay, not white, different religion, women, children, have different opinions…
They claim Jesus as their savior and greatest teacher but look everywhere but Jesus’s sermons for justifications for their beliefs. It’s so blatantly hypocritical.
I’m an atheist, but in cases like these I hope that they are right and get re-routed to hell for being a hypocrite and asshole.
How hard can it be not to throw stones on other people?
I’m an atheist too. I grew up in religion, but that hypocrisy is not something I could ignore.
Some churches have actually been asked to stop giving Jesus’ sermons, for fear that they are woke.
I bet a few of them could get onboard with stoning unruly children. (Mark 7. The law Jesus cited and accused the Pharisees of not following is about stoning children who talk back to their parents.)
If you wondered why conservative Christians come up with awful shit in the Bible… it’s because the Bible has awful shit to come up with.
I was just pointing out they cherry pick the most awful shit and most of it from the old testament.
Right, on the same day it’s come out that Trump is making it harder for US citizens abroad to vote, and Hegseth has announced a ‘Department of Religious Affairs’ in the military which appears to exclusively be for Cristian Pastors/soldiers.
…and the claim is LGBTQIA+ people are hijacking the US?
It’s always projection with them.
Empathy is cumulative, you can’t have enough of it or hijack it. What a fucking caveman.

Those Conservative Christian, right wing Republican, straight, white, American male pastors have never heard of lepers? Love them all, motherfuckers!
Skeletons in closet in 3. 2. 1…
Hah. My thoughts exactly. It’s so pathetic with these guys. 100% he’s gay, or rapes minors or some fuckery.
