I think it's more than liberalism and American liberals,the post WWII consensus on the direction the world should go in is tearing down the middle, a diastatis. Who the hell knows what happens next.

Jack Gladney posted:This is a really naive question, but was postwar capitalism always doomed to collapse, with Milton Friedman and his pack of ghouls simply giving the system a few more years by crushing its victims to feed the top? For what it's worth the Chicago school and Friedman at least tried to have an empirical foundation. But that is not where we are now. We can't stop here this is Austrian country.

rudatron posted:That's not true anymore either. Milton Friedman and the monetarists have all been proven wrong by the great recession, in a fairly spectacular way. Quantitative easing did exactly jack poo poo. I don't disagree that they are wrong. All I'm saying is that they looked at data when then made the arguements. The freedom topics research crowd has axiomatic conclusions and doesn't give a poo poo.

Convincing people to change their beliefs, there is a lot written about that under the topic of transformational leadership. Most of it is garbage. But the core of the ok stuff is that one has to convince people that one is truly for them and their needs and thier dreams. By really being for others and having the ideas serve them and by subjecting ones self to the mirror of their judgment. It's question of creating meaning and faith.
