Relativism and Wokism

In this podcast, we explore the provocative interplay between tolerance and relativism, as outlined in Maria V. Krylova’s article, which argues that these intertwined doctrines shape modern ethical thought, often at the expense of objective truth. Anchored by Blaise Pascal’s insight that “truth is so obscure in these times, and falsehood so established,” the article critiques how relativism—asserting that truth and morality are subjective and culture-dependent—fuels a redefined notion of tolerance that stifles disagreement and fosters political correctness and wokism. Building on Module 4’s study of fallacies and biases, this introduction sets the stage for analyzing how relativism’s rejection of universal truths, as seen in Allan Bloom’s observations and George Reisman’s defense of Western achievements, leads to societal challenges like cancel culture, encouraging students to critically assess these ideas in Canvas assignments.
