133: The Overton Window and Its Consequences

Talk Back to Me

The Overton Window gets referenced most in political and social conversation, and it refers to the spectrum of socially acceptable norms in a given society. This places it squarely in the realm of political philosophy. 

And the recent event of the New Mexico Governor's executive order suspending citizen's right to carry a firearm lands as the perfect example to discuss this subject and its ramifications. My observation of the current window places impeaching the governor not on the fringes, but in the center. 

And normative nature of this has its consequences.
