Suicidal Empathy: Dying to Be Kind
3rd June 2026
“Fare il frocio col culo degli altri”
The Italian proverb lands with earthy bluntness: it is easy to be generous with someone else’s backside. The costs are never yours. This single observation captures the heart of Gad Saad’s 2026 polemic Suicidal Empathy: Dying to Be Kind. What masquerades as boundless kindness is often cheap virtue performed at someone else’s expense, luxury beliefs funded by taxpayers, institutions, or abstract “society,” never by the people waving the placards. The term Suicidal Empathy, therefore, requires a sarcastic interpretation, because the gesture is in reality neither suicidal nor genuinely empathic. It is a signal of virtue, which it self is a concept spoken out of the side of its mouth. This because a central component of virtue is that it bears a cost and that has to be by the one being virtuous. So the loan of someone else’s butthole for sexual gratification is easy virtue in more than one way.
