Listen Later

Explore the pressing question of our time: How do we counter authoritarianism without falling into dogma ourselves? In this thought-provoking conversation, John Atack and Jeremy Sherman tackle the rise of absolutist movements, the role of irony and curiosity in challenging dogma, and the existential challenges facing humanity in an increasingly complex world.

🔹 From the psychology of Trumpism to the allure of simplistic solutions
🔹 The "anti-dogma dogma" and the search for strategic humility
🔹 How imagination and rationality can be tools for growth—or traps
🔹 The dangers of escapism in the age of AI and social polarization
This one-hour journey combines wit, wisdom, and a candid exploration of the human condition. Don't miss this chance to think critically, challenge assumptions, and join the conversation about the future of democracy and humanity. 🌍✨
