My guest this week is Kevin Dorst (@kevin_dorst), a philosopher at Oxford University and University of Pittsburg with a particular interest in polarization and irrationality. We discuss why current polarization involves elevated levels of demonization and if there's any way to break out of this spiral.Kevin's Website: https://www.kevindorst.com/Convocation: The Tower of BabelEditing by Lu Lyons, check out her amazing podcast Filmed Live Musicals! http://www.filmedlivemusicals.com/podcast.htmlMusic by GW RodriguezSibling Pod Philosophers in Space: https://0gphilosophy.libsyn.com/Support us at Patreon.com/EmbraceTheVoidIf you enjoy the show, please Like and Review us on your pod app, especially iTunes.
