In this bonus episode exclusively for Slate Plus members, Barry Lam and Stephen Metcalf discuss whether they can separate the morality of an activist's tactics from the morality of their causes, and Barry talks about why he finds vegans insufferable even though they might be right. Stephen worries about whether the diversity of human moral judgment requires the mask of civility, and the two discuss whether tolerance for incivility is generational. Finally, Barry asks Stephen what he thinks of restaurant owners asking politicians to leave their establishment.
