Toby Buckle is the host of the appropriately named Political Philosophy Podcast, as well as someone who has had many years of experience working for social justice organizations. Jeremiah probes him on some of the content in the recent episodes dealing with the history of Libertarianism, ideology, and language in a modern political context. The two discuss how politics becomes a battle over language, and why nobody is ever going to agree on what freedom or socialism mean. Toby unpacks the vacuous foundations of political libertarianism. Jeremiah probes Toby on where he sits politically, which leads to a brief discussion of radical vs. reformist politics and where either lead in light of looming existential threats.Follow Toby on Twitter:https://twitter.com/PolPhilPodListen to Political Philosophy Podcast:https://www.politicalphilosophypodcast.com/
