Ep 801 | Don’t Fall for Weaponized Empathy

Relatable with Allie Beth Stuckey - A podcast by Blaze Podcast Network

Today we're talking about the atrocious shooting at an outlet mall in Allen, Texas, that took place Saturday. We go through the horrifying event, which took the lives of eight people, and explain why the conversation surrounding gun violence needs to be addressed in good faith by both parties, yet the Left doesn't seem to want to do that. We also look at the media response to the shooting, which – surprising no one – was filled with reporters very quickly building a narrative. Many liberal outlets almost immediately claimed from an anonymous source that the shooter had white supremacist roots despite not even being white. While the event is still being investigated, those reports seem to be largely unfounded at the moment. We also discuss big upcoming changes in our immigration system that will see a massive wave of migrants at the border. Then, we take a look at a CNN article that attempts to gain sympathy for a woman who was forced to carry her baby to term due to Florida's abortion restrictions. The woman argues it was even more horrifying to give birth and hold her son for 92 hours than it would have been to abort him, but the question remains – horrifying for whom? While we feel heartbreak for this family's tragedy, we reject the faux empathy that CNN seems to be promoting. --- Timecodes: (00:49) Intro (04:00) Shooting in Allen (13:05) Media response (30:05) Immigration changes (41:57) CNN abortion article --- Today's Sponsors: Good Ranchers — get $30 OFF your box today at GoodRanchers.com – make sure to use code 'ALLIE' when you subscribe.
