Day 113: A Way Out of the Red-v-Blue Trap, on Substack

If there is an absolute moral Truth, it would be the height of arrogance to believe that any one human being owns it. But if there is an absolute moral Truth, then we also have a duty to seek it. Since no single one of us owns it, that approach must be collective.

Each of us must make moral judgments and defend them, but each of us must equally allow room for others' moral judgments - irrespective of our relative "rightness" - because the journey is a collective one.
