Against Empathy: The Case for Rational Compassion — Why Feeling Can Distort Morality
Welcome to Crisis in Perception, where we examine the systems shaping our world.
This episode explores Against Empathy: The Case for Rational Compassion by Paul Bloom as a systems-level analysis of how emotional empathy influences behavior, belief, and institutional outcomes.
By focusing on incentive architecture rather than personalities or events, the episode shows why these systems persist — and how they connect to larger economic, political, and cultural structures.
