Principle Over Party: Navigating Elections and Politics Ethically
Should loyalty to a tribe, nation, or party outweigh personal moral principles? What does it mean to be principled while living in a world dominated by partisan division? Can our instinctive desire to belong be reconciled with our desire for moral integrity, and if so, how can we help our own side reform to better stand by the principles it aims to support? All of that and more in today’s video!
A US election day special!
