Episode notes

Prostasia is a website that exclusively published erotica detailing the rape, torture and sometimes murder of children. The fbi declined to publish the title of the web site because they were using it to generate leads. They wanted to continue generating those leads and placing these people who are committing actual felonies,. including actual sexual abuse of children, under arrest. That's a funny ass way to protect children, if you ask me. But i understand if a professor at yale sees it differently. Happy to debate them in person about this.

Elizabeth Bruenig is a staff writer at The Atlantic and a Catholic socialist who writes on topics as varied as capital punishment and mothering two children while in her twenties. Her work is uniquely marked by her ruby-red Texas upbringing, the elite professional world she now inhabits, and her deep sense of morality, which draws from both Christian theology and left-wing politics.

In a wide-ranging conversation, Elizabeth Bruenig and Yascha Mounk debate the importance of dialogue across moral perspectives, whether wokeness bears any resemblance to theology, and how religious conviction can give rise to an authentically liberal defense of free speech.
