4/5/2021 - In this episode, we think out loud about a few ideas. We start with the often cited statement that libertarians are "economically conservative, socially liberal". It may be a coincidence that libertarians and the left agree on gay marriage and legalizing drugs, and there are social issues where left wing people are far more authoritarian. We also explore the situation in Georgia where left wing activists pressured Coca Cola into making a statement about voting legislation. And we think about what it means that left wing people are often informed of their opinions by the government; when are private decisions based on government messaging? What does that situation mean for those involved?
