Discussion about Toleration and Civil Discourse
Over at ReImagining Liberty
Aaron Ross Powell and I discuss toleration, harm, reasons for interference, and, yes, civil discourse, on his podcast, ReImagining Liberty. A fun discussion that touches on much of what I have been writing about including what sorts of things count as harms, the reasons pluralism matters, libertarian purism, and why I moved into discussing civil discourse and how I think we ought to engage in such discourse. Also some straightforward social commentary and ways to change the culture that might improve civil discourse—including child rearing, education, and government involvement therein. I’ve made similar comments here in the past, but putting them together in the conversation was instructive for me. You might enjoy it!
