The Will to Act

Moral weakness will lead only to contempt.

Christian blogger Samuel Sey is getting deported, and some conservatives want an exception made. Yet this is precisely the problem — religion and empathy seem to be trotted out only when it is time to call surrender. The moral weakness shown after the death of Charlie Kirk showed the same problem. Given that the open threats against conservatives, Christians, and especially white people on the basis of their race are no longer possible to deny, what is the point of such posturing? A morality based on asking declared enemies to feel pity for you will only garner contempt. And it should.
