Listen "Flat-Earth Politics in a Cubic World"
Episode Synopsis
Philosophics presents a satirical critique of modern political discourse in the US and UK. The author argues that society suffers from a simplistic, binary "Red vs. Blue" mentality, hindering nuanced understanding. This reduction of complex issues into opposing sides prevents meaningful conversation and fosters tribalism. The piece suggests that reality is multi-faceted, like a cube, with numerous perspectives beyond a flat, two-dimensional view. Ultimately, the author laments this intellectual flattening driven by social media and calls for a return to critical thinking and an appreciation for complexity.https://philosophics.blog/2025/04/03/flat-earth-politics-in-a-cubic-world/
