Below are two images of badly deformed human faces. The one on the left belongs to someone who has a genetic condition called Williams Syndrome (WS), sometimes known as ‘the pathology of overfriendliness’. Sufferers are somewhat mentally disabled, possessing abnormalities of the amygdala brain-region, making them less able to read others’ facial expressions and assess potential threats from them. WS patients have immense trouble recognising such threats, and so often gullibly fall victim to cruel exploitations like sexual abuse from those predators who recognise an easy target when they see one. Interestingly, and for similar neurological reasons, they are also known to be extremely low in racial bias.
The similarly misshapen face on the right, meanwhile, belongs to someone suffering an equally debilitating condition called Green Party Syndrome (GPS), sometimes known as ‘the pathology of Guardian readers’. Patients are even more mentally disabled, possessing severe abnormalities of the optic nerve, which renders them functionally blind to something called ‘reality’. Victims are also known to be extremely low in racial bias, except against white people and Jews, and likewise are unable to recognise obvious threats to their wellbeing when they encounter them, particularly when said threats come bearing large beards and claiming to be ‘refugees’.
This serious malady is what causes certain prominent sufferers, such as a Mr Zack Polanski, a notorious London-based mental patient who walks around saying he is going to be the next Prime Minister, to advocate a series of demented, self-defeating utopian policy measures,

As usual great article, the problem is so many indoctrinated and a Gov that tells you, you are all racist bigots, however, that tide is beginning to turn, and we may just have a slim chance of rescuing the country!
I’m not going to comment on the book before I’ve read it (which I plan to). Purely as an aside, I think Gad has pulled off something unprecedented here. This isn’t the first time the title of a book has become part of the language (e.g. 1984, Catch-22). But the phrase “suicidal empathy” had become established even while he was still writing the volume. Surely only the Gadfather could achieve this.
Jesus Christ had suicidal empathy.
Discuss.
Naah these people might be gentle as doves, but they are certainly not as wise as serpents.
Interesting question. But Jesus only stayed dead for three days. Sadly, we are still awaiting the resurrection of Jack Merritt.
I can’t criticize a grieving father, but the Guardian is so – words fail me.
I ordered my hardback copy from Amazon.com, slightly more than Amazon.co.uk but arrives a month earlier.
Fortunately we already have the technology for people to point their phone at a bunch of Arab speakers and the App to relay, accurately, what is being said. Only a matter of time before it becomes a thing on TikTok.
Institutional lemmings, or just lemmings!
Some great observations in this article, bitingly humorous as always!
A very good article, and a thought-provoking last paragraph. Of course the book is hated by the people who claim to hate hatred, but who turn out on closer inspection to have an incurable death-wish.
Excellent article, but you are preaching to the mostly converted on this platform.
i read about the woman who didn’t want to put another black man in jail and I was disgusted.
The legacy media have done such a good job of twisting people’s minds that they actually think that they are capturing the moral high ground.
my husband speaks Arabic and he says that some of the things Muslims say together in their own language is appalling. He, being white is considered ignorant and stupid and it is assumed that he can’t understand what’s being said.
as for Polanski, I just wish he’d keep his death wish to himself!
I had not realised how toxic this society had become until I heard that people actually thought that if reform got in, women would be forced to stay at home and being homosexual would become a crime again. I can’t believe anyone could be so stupid!
indeed, one of my granddaughters reasons for not wanting to go on holiday to America was that now the republicans were in, all women in the states were in danger!
when I asked who told her this clap trap, she said that republicans had… Read more »
There’s been a recent case of “not wanting to put another black man in jail:” Valdo Calocane, who was clearly psychotic, but wasn’t put into “protective custody” because the idiotic psychiatrists/social workers assessing him thought that the proportion of black men who were being sectioned for both their safety and the safety of society was too high.
So he was left free to murder three innocent people.
The trouble is, the sufferers think it’s OK and necessary for the rest of us to be forced to participate in the suicide. Passive aggressive fascism.
