In this follow-up to the Altruism Grudge Match, Joia is joined by Ash Ryan to go "beyond the grudge" and start problem solving an improved ethical framework. It's not enough to point out problems with Ayn Rand's egoism/altruism binary (as Joia did in the AGM), let's work to figure out a better model that integrates how as human beings we are both profoundly social and profoundly individual.

In a continuation of our "Official Launch" conversation, Adam and Joia duke it out on the topic of altruism. Is Ayn Rand's definition of "sacrifice" just factually, empirically wrong? Would it matter if it is? Is altruism a significant cause in the threat to freedom we see on both the left and the right today?
Let us know your thoughts!
