Episode 47: Ravi Bali on Conducting Arguments in an Honest, Revolutionary Manner

The co-hosts welcome back Ravi Bali to discuss his recently-published essay, “On Conducting Arguments in an Honest, Revolutionary Manner.” Ravi explains why he thinks truth-seeking should be an important goal for revolutionaries, and why revolutionaries should debate differences among us, instead of assuming that it’s sufficient to agree about “the fundamentals.” He and the co-hosts also discuss procedures that allow for proper debate; examples of bad, and better, argumentative practices; and much more.
