Episode Synopsis

Question 1. [1:22] - What is the purpose or goal of doing ethics? How is universal preference - as defined in Universally Preferable Behaviour - different from an indicative conditional?Question 2. [47:55] - How do you solve the problem of public morality in the realm of your philosophy? For example: showing pornography in the public – it doesn't look like a form of active aggression but is still harmful to the general public, particularly to the children. From the philosophy of law standpoint, I'd look at it as a violation of the parental power, but I think there might be more to it than just that.Question 3. [1:20:17] - What is your opinion on voting for the least terrible person on the ballot? Question 4. [1:43:11] - Could the rise of Donald Trump's popularity be a sign of a tendency towards populism in the United States? I ask the question because I have seen - both historically and first-hand - the same happen in other countries as well as my own.
