Building Community and Combating Social Polarisation through Real Talk Part 2
from This Humean Life with The Philosophical Coach · host Sam Kukathas
In a world where we generally don’t like being told what to do, we rely on algorithms to ironically tell us what to do. Why? Because we want certainty so bad that we will seek it any cost. What is that cost? This is what Jon Dallas and I look at in the second of this two part series on Building Community and Combating Social Polarisation through Real Talk. Jon is an "effective activist" combating political and social polarization. He is a TEDx speaker and Founder of Real Talk Philosophy, a social philosophy events organization aiming to combat polarization with community explorations of divisive social issues, from polyamory to immigration. In part two of the series we dive into our desire for certainty, and why binary thinking tends to fuel more anger, violence, and rage within society across divisive issues from politics, religion, veganism, sexual orientation. And we look at how Real Talk is combating both the tendency to see complex issues in black and white but also the suffering that this is perpetuating.
