INGERSOLL: Behold, The Perfect Mascot For Suicidal Empathy

Below is State of the Day, a morning newsletter by Daily Caller Editor-at-Large Geoff Ingersoll. Sign up here.

Greetings, Dear Reader,

Ladies and gentlemen, allow me to present to you the final boss of affluent, deranged, liberal white ladies.

SUICIDAL EMPATHY, YOU HAVE YOUR MASCOT

Imagine my surprise when my timeline presented me with an Iranian propaganda video fronted by a well spoken, hijabed American white woman standing beside – “entirely indigenous” she boasted falsely – Iranian missiles.

She praised Iran for producing the ordnance and arming various regional terrorist groups in order to stand up to “imperialism.” By that, she means the nation of her birth, America, and Israel.

“Margbar a America,” she said in a previous appearance in Iran. It means death to America. She said this in the country that just openly slaughtered tens of thousands of protesters.

Renée Good who? Suicidal empathy, meet your new mascot.

I’m not even remotely surprised.

Calla Walsh’s bio is both the least shocking, most comprehensive indictment of elite America’s degradation I’ve ever seen.

Her father is a Boston University chair of creative writing. She grew up in Harvard Square. She attended a $50,000-a-year girls school. She dropped out of McGill, an elite Canadian university lovingly referred to as “Canada’s Harvard” (lmao). She volunteered for Elizabeth Warren. She volunteered for Michelle Wu. She “drove digital outreach” for ultra left wing challengers to other Democrats. Joe Kennedy called her operation “toxic.” She was a savant for finding old Twitter posts she could use to bludgeon candidates for being insufficiently lefty.

She was a delegate for the Democratic Socialists of America. She had a falling out with Mamdani. She calls him “Ziohran” and insists he’s pro-Israel. She’s also been charged with three felony crimes for far left “direct action” campaigns.

And finally, she toured Iran in 2025 to serve as a digital spokeswoman of sorts for the rogue Islamic state.

Move over, Jane Fonda!

If the hordes of “extremism” researchers and experts that cropped up post 2016 to track down and prosecute 4Chan memesmiths for making fun of Hillary had any idea of the extremism pipeline compromising the minds of young girls right in their own backyard, they’d … 

That’s right. Despite spending billions of dollars – some of it coming from you as taxpayers, Dear Reader! – constructing a constellation of NGO’s, academic research groups, non-profit extremism organizations and advertising boycott bullies, the elite pipeline producing militant leftist children like Walsh, who is only 21, has been left otherwise unmolested.

No, we’d rather arrest pastors for praying outside abortion clinics. Now that’s real extremism.
