>can you imagine any other apex predator in history lowering itself in the food chain out of "compassion" for the animals below it?

I've seen some people theorize, that a new, less Christian, right will eventually emerge out of this.
I think it's become increasingly clear, that there is a tension between rightwing, nationalist thought, and the fundamental Christian message of loving your neighbor. How can you send away refugees or deny others what they ask for, and consider yourself to follow Christ? In the gospels, Jesus teaches self-denial and giving up everything to follow in his footsteps, so logically any follower of his would have to sacrifice whatever they posses out of love for others. Even if it is not exactly the same as liberalism, it's definitely closer to it than any genuine rightwing movement.
Obviously the attached image is a simplification and there are currents that would not squarely fall into one or the other, but you get the main idea. Either you advocate for alleviating suffering as much as possible for all, or for the strongest to rise above and become the best humanity can be. The former is ultimately self-destructive (as we can see now), and the latter is often barbaric. A middle path would be desirable, but I'm not sure if that is really in the cards.
