Listen "Perspective, Charlie Kirk, and Cultural Divide"
Episode Synopsis
Language Philosopher Bry Willis from the socio-political philosophy blog titled Philosophics, specifically a post from September 2025 titled "Perspective Is Everything." This commentary focuses on the intense political and ideological divisions within the United States, which the author sarcastically calls the "United States In Name Only." The core argument examines how different cohorts perceive the rhetoric of political figure Charlie Kirk; while one side views him as a pious Christian leader, the author's camp sees him as an opportunist peddling hate. The blog post uses this disparity to discuss the theme of wilful blindness and differing perceptions of hate speech, noting that what one group considers "common sense," another views as a hostile takeover of public discourse.https://philosophics.blog/2025/09/19/perspective-is-everything/
