Episode 372

In this conversation, Jake and I delve into the complexities of empathy, accountability, and the influence of foreign powers on American culture, particularly in the context of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. We discuss the authenticity of public figures like Theo Von, the implications of toxic compassion, and the role of Qatar in shaping narratives within American universities. We also explore the concept of ‘woke’ politics from both left and right perspectives, culminating in a nuanced discussion about morality in warfare.
