The modern Left claims to fight for justice — but what if it can no longer recognise evil when it’s staring it in the face? In this explosive episode of Heretics, Douglas Murray joins Andrew Gold to expose the West’s moral blindness — and explain why so many people on the Left refuse to confront the brutal truth about terrorism, antisemitism, and the collapse of moral courage.

Douglas Murray — bestselling author, journalist, and one of the world’s sharpest cultural commentators — reveals what really happened during his viral Joe Rogan debate with Dave Smith, where he defended Israel and exposed the lies circulating online about Hamas and the October 7 atrocities. He explains how misinformation and moral relativism have infected Western debate, creating a generation of activists who excuse or deny evil — as long as it fits their politics.

Andrew and Douglas delve deep into how the modern Left lost its moral compass. They explore the rise of Nazi-style antisemitism in the Arab world, the popularity of Mein Kampf in parts of the Muslim world, and why only one in four British Muslims believe Hamas committed the October 7 massacre. Douglas warns that this moral confusion isn’t confined to the Middle East — it’s spreading through Europe’s streets, campuses, and parliaments.

Expect fierce, uncompromising insights into:

Why the Left can’t accept that real evil exists in the modern world

How Western academics and activists have become apologists for terror

The UN’s obsession with Israel and its silence on global atrocities

The growing “Lebanonisation” of Europe — and what it means for the future of democracy

Churchill’s forgotten warnings about appeasement and cowardice

Murray argues that moral clarity — the courage to name good and evil — is the foundation of civilisation. Lose that, and the West loses everything. This conversation isn’t about politics; it’s about truth, justice, and survival.
