096: The Irrationality of Rationalists (w/ Samantha Hancox-Li)

from ReImagining Liberty · host Aaron Ross Powell

The ideologies that shape our world can be awfully weird. The one that combines the most influence with the most weirdness is arguably Rationalism, which grew out of backwater blogs to have the ears, and influence the minds, of people like Elon Musk and JD Vance.To talk about what Rationalism is, why we should care about its beliefs and arguments, and the impact it's had outside those strange corners of the internet, I've brought back Samantha Hancox-Li. She's a writer, game designer, editor at Liberal Currents, and host of the Neon Liberalism podcast.Join the ReImagining Liberty Patreon to get episodes a week early, listen ad-free, and become part of the Discord community.
