Summary
<p>The latest attack on humanity by Silicon Valley is against your empathy. According to our tech overlords, you are wrong to be concerned with the well being of others. In fact, you are destroying civilization itself. </p><p>Ayn Rand never died. </p><p>But what is empathy? Is it an emotion that liberals exploit to brow beat you into submission? Or is it the saving grace of what it means to be human? And why are the likes of Elon Musk, Peter Thiel and Marc Andreesen so adamant that you are doing it all wrong? Is this war on empathy a political tact to numb you to the coming horrors of the new world about to be born? To help us understand, I am joined by the lovely Dorian and Laura to talk about the politics and spirituality of empathy </p>
