Welcome back. This week’s episode is heavier. I’m reflecting on a shocking event and the reactions it sparked—celebration, grief, and moral outrage. It’s a moment that shows how divided we are and how morality shapes what we see as right or wrong.

Using Jonathan Haidt’s moral foundations, I explore why different groups interpret the same event so differently, and how images, narratives, and online culture amplify those reactions.

I also dive into the rise of revivalist movements, the risks of mixing religion and politics, and why recognizing our moral blind spots is essential.

The takeaway: grief, polarization, and moral certainty can bind us—or blind us. Strong democracies need trust, institutions, and stories that unite rather than divide.
