Systemic Altruism
Показать описание
In this episode of New Ideal Live, Onkar Ghate and Ben Bayer discuss the pervasive influence of altruism on the culture and draw lessons from it about the systemic racism debate.
Among the topics covered:
● Systemic altruism, like systemic racism, as the claim that the ideology permeates the culture, even if is not always accepted explicitly;
● What altruism is and why it is evil;
● Examples of altruism’s influence on the culture, including environmentalism, egalitarianism, and the anti-abortion movement;
● Why most people find it hard to see this influence;
● The role of social and cultural institutions, such as churches, universities, and the media, in perpetuating altruism;
● The psychological mechanisms by which altruism spreads and sustains itself;
● How better people sometimes internalize altruism and how this is often used against them;
● How this analysis of systemic altruism can shed light on the controversy over whether systemic racism still exists.
