Politics isn’t just left versus right anymore. Increasingly, debates are framed as battles of good versus evil, with opponents not just seen as wrong, but as morally corrupt. Social media outrage, cancel culture, and extreme partisanship have intensified this shift, turning disagreements into moral warfare rather than ideological debate.

In this episode, we explore why this change has happened, how it affects political discourse, and what it means for society. From public figures being “cancelled” over old statements to voters treating disagreements as moral failings, the lines between accountability and moral judgment have blurred.

We also dig into the consequences: how moral framing shapes elections, legislation, and the possibility of compromise. Are both sides equally guilty, or is one more prone to turning politics into a battle of virtue? And can society ever return to debating ideas rather than judging morality?

In this episode, we cover:

• Why politics is shifting from policy to moral judgment

• How cancel culture and social media amplify moral outrage

• The consequences of moral framing on elections and legislation

• Whether accountability is being confused with moral warfare

• The challenges of restoring reasoned debate in a polarized society

If you’ve ever wondered why political disagreements feel like fights between good and evil, this episode will give you the context to understand it.
