Episode description

In this Truthful episode, Straussians are BTFO’d by one of the greatest men to ever live, Anicius Manlius Severinus Boëthius — better known simply as Boethius. What can we do about the Woke brigade, cancel culture, and our lingering sense that the world that existed for our grandfathers was in some sense truer and more natural than the one we find ourselves in? Should we use cryptic language and parables, should we dodge persecution, make compromises, and let the executioner take our allies before they take us? Or should we do the right thing and simply endure the consequences? What would Lady Philosophy do?
