As I recently wrote, the goal of all fascists is the erasure of empathy, which is the ability to feel for others who need help — who are suffering. Empathy is the antimatter of sociopathy and sadism, which are required ingredients for genocide.

We are in a psychological war for the survival of empathy. Coordinated harassment is an on-ramp and a training ground for sociopathy and sadism, which are the necessary ingredients for genocide. #ArrestMikeFlynn

Douglas Wilson, a fraudulent Baptist pastor who has effectively captured the entire town of Moscow, ID, has created a pipeline for creating sociopaths to wage spiritual war to suppress equal rights. Here is a Christian “critique” laying out his record of criminal, sociopathic behavior.

Here’s an article from the SPLC from 2004 warning about Wilson’s radicalism, including his defense of Southern Slavery.

Christ Church is the Christian church central to Doug Wilson’s cult which still headquartered in Moscow, ID, but now spreading across America. Joe Rigney, one of Wilson’s partners in Christ Church, wrote this article decrying the “Sin of Empathy” and argues that feeling for others is “demonic.”

This is psychological warfare, a deceptive psyop using Christianity as a vector to capture the minds of citizens and indoctrinate them into sociopathy.

Here are Doug Wilson and Joe Rigney together two years ago in a well-produced video designed to convince you that instead of feeling for others you must pity them instead.

The linguistic trickery in this is extremely sophisticated. They argue the etymological difference between sympathy and empathy, which is a newer word (c. late 1800s), represents the degeneracy of our society.

They make the very clear and completely disingenuous point that the reason that sympathy is not only better but holier, is that sympathy enforces a hierarchy — there is a hurter and a helper. When you feel empathy, they argue, you are lowering yourself to the level of a person you should be pitying instead.

If this seems at all like a theoretical argument, it’s not. Doug Wilson’s declaration that people should not feel empathy, but pity, gives him a framework to promote his misogynistic, theocratic goals. For example, his cult believes women’s suffrage should be repealed.

Wilson’s misogyny, bigotry and sociopathy is evident in the stories of people who have escaped from his cult and from his psychological and sexual abuse. This is heartbreaking and illuminating.

Doug Wilson’s podcast is called “Man Rampant” which is appropriate.

Doug Wilson is a man rampant with power and greed who wants to dismantle our society through “spiritual war” and replace it with a white male-dominated ethnostate.

Sadly, no story about a fake Christian cult leader would be complete without pedophilia — which Doug Wilson actively supports and protects in his church.

Doug Wilson is a liar and a fraud, a cult leader with the goal of creating theocracy in America. The fact that he is waging a literal war on empathy should tell you everything you need to know.

We must fight to hold on to our empathy, to defeat the sociopathy of people like Doug Wilson. We have the right to care about others and for others to care about us.

Reading Doug Wilson's beliefs that women should not be allowed to vote and that "Christian women" (his definition of Christianity, of course, lacking morals, values or anything Christ-like) are naturally prettier because all those Lib women take "ugly pills" and that sex is never supposed to be enjoyed by women, who only exist "to receive" from men whose job it is to dominate and plunder......

It reminds one of Vladimir Putin and pals' attitudes about women and masculinity. Interesting that the American right wing always parrots Putin. May they all go down together.

I went to a C of E (Protestant) junior school, and a Catholic comprehensive school in England (UK) in the 80s. I am technically Christian, but was never particularly keen on it.

However I do enjoy real history from antiquity, which is 10 times better than the “greatest story ever told”.

Interesting that the “rapture” was never mentioned when I was at school or at church (if it was, I would have seen it as a red flag). I think maybe Christianity has been watered down over here since it caused a lot of chew a few centuries ago.

Gnostic Informant has a good presentation on extreme evangelicalism from early Christian writings, comparing it to Mafia gangland:
