John Higgs in conversation with Ezra Klein: > It's always a real disappointment when there's a hero you admire, and they get tribal. Even when you agree with them, even when you agree with their politics, because you know exactly what they're going to say about everything. You don't get the interesting, unexpected ideas that you hopefully get when someone's trying to write with an understanding of the plurality of the audience. Ezra Klein: > How to help people expose their multi-dimensionality, expose their pieces of hesitancy, expose the many kinds of things that they are, as opposed to trying to get them to narrow themselves to one thing that is easier to advertise to, and easier to build a community around. The violence that the Internet does is to shrink us down.
