Erosion of Truth and Importance of Feelings

A significant theme discussed is the idea that feelings have overtaken truth as a primary measure of inclusion and acceptance in society. The conversation highlights how public discourse has shifted towards prioritizing correct opinions over genuine inclusiveness, particularly affecting artists and individuals of color. This shift leads to feelings of exclusion, as those who hold differing views may find their voices silenced or marginalized. The key insight is that while society aims to be inclusive, the implementation often creates barriers that ironically exclude people from meaningful participation.
