follows the morality in this case. so i think that's a correct observation. let me just follow up on that. so we've also asked why that's the case and we've made some progress one thing that seems to promote moral universalism is movement residential mobility and for a variety of reasons the us has suffered decline in residential mobility and also climate shocks make people more parochial and certain parts of the united states have been shocked by rising changes in the climate and they have become more morally parochial and that's nice and easy because you get these kind of random shocks, so i'm pretty confident. yeah. have you considered the role of slavery in any of your studies? and if so, what what have you discovered thus far? um and what way so i mean, you know slavery has been a common feature of empires throughout human history and one of the criticism, i mean, i often get this criticism from some of my colleagues at harvard, which is that i haven't given enough attention to colonialism slavery and genocide one

"morales?" annamarie: "morales." clarence: yeah. m-o-r-l-a-s? l-a-e-s? annamarie: morales.ryant: how are you going to work fosomebody you can't even spell the name of the damn funeral home? clarence: [laughs] because i researched them. i researched them. james bryant: it's not m-o-r-a-l-s. that's "morals." clarence pierre: m-o-r-l-a-e-s. l-e-s. james bryant: and what else was about them that was so impressive? clarence pierre: very professional. they have a lot of families. they have high volume. so they're doing good, though. and i would like to go over there and just become a part, if i can, to something that's alrdy going. james bryant: see? there's nothing wrong with going with the funeral home. i grew with this funeral home. this funeral home wasn't doing all this when i started here. but if you want to start off at the top, you know, annamarie say it is fine. so it's ok. i'll come see you in morals. annamarie lopez: in morals [laughs] clarence pierre: no. what is it? annamarie lopez: morales. clence pierre: morales. james bryant: morales. clarence pierre: yeah. james

difficulties - this is a war, in general, a moral difficulty.ave a lot of friends there and well, with whom i worked hard, it’s, well, it’s hardest to see the donetsk military, they already 5 months at the front, and at home in the cities of the dpr, their relatives are under constant ukrainian shelling, adult children suffer and die. my wife runs around donetsk from shells, now the center of donetsk is being shot back very strongly, and there was no connection with my mother for two or two days. just me being here. well, this is how i should relate to these guys. i don't feel sorry for them. yes, i feel sorry for, perhaps, their families of mothers have children there, but i don’t feel sorry for them. they came to kill us subordinates. well, more units and the soldiers themselves disappeared somewhere. in the trench, all the rest fled. these guys are mobilized. well, nobody counts them. for them, it is a bargaining chip. what did you do, they gave you a weapon, that's all. i've been here for two days only and immediately. yes, they brought me a

i think that they have another name for now and i think it was, it's called like moral moral failure. so to assistance is feeling that people come back with after being in war. if they feel like they think they've done things better outside of their moral compass, ah, we're still evaluating how we're gonna approach the whole issue of interrogations, detentions, and so forth. and i don't believe that anybody is above below. on the other hand, i also have a belief that we need to look forward as lowe's, as possible looking backwards ah, will look forward backward. well, forward is going to be like backward. if you don't do something about what happened in the past, nobody has been held accountable for the torture that happened in the past. and for this, among other people, i fault. president obama, essentially he gave everybody, dick cheney donald rumsfeld. he gave them all a free pass george w bush. they're all going to be rehabilitated. they're all going to be treated as great statesman. one day, i mean, they gave president obama a nobel prize for not being george w bush. the question

stain and the moral pain on him. and in order to save all these people, there was always this anxiety in american politics. which is that democracy kinds of makes, makes us weaker and less capable of taking the real things that real men should be able to do. there's a very gendered masculine as sort of notion behind this real men, torture and and democracy makes a sissies to in the middle east. we have people shopping the heads off christians. we have things that we have never seen before. i would bring back water boarding and i'd bring back a hell of a lot worse than water boarding. who, who today is your and your terrors. people could be a free trial detection. fcc 2 south for 2 years. they're going anywhere. would you say that the manhattan m. c. c? is while he done in plain sight, a black sight on american feeling? yes, i would say it's a black saying that the sense of the black sites that people are being taken out and tortured, but they're being tortured in the way that their daily lives are being managed or no

moral difficulties - this is war, in general, a moral difficulty.t of friends there and well, with whom i i worked hard, it's, well, to see the military in donetsk the hardest, they have been at the front for 5 months, and at home in the cities of the dpr, their relatives are under constant ukrainian shelling, and adult children suffer. my wife is running away from shells in donetsk, the center of donetsk is being shelled very heavily now, and there was no communication with her mother for two two days, and she was here. well, this is how i should relate to these guys. i don't feel sorry for them. yes, i feel sorry for them, perhaps their families of mothers have children there, but i don’t feel sorry for them, they came kill us here here it turned out the command left its subordinates. well, for the most part, the soldiers themselves disappeared somewhere. in the trench, all the rest fled. these guys are mobilized. well, nobody counts them. for them, it is a bargaining chip. what did you do, they gave you weapons and that's it. i've been here for t

what is that done to morale morale among the people? you know for us, of course it's very devastating. it's fer, involves a lot of pain. this whole tragedy, but at the same time read it's, it's this war, it's about our survival. we do not have other territories, we can just go and occupy. this is our land, this is our home. so the morale is pretty high because we know what we are fighting for, and we know what russia brings to those territories it occupies like now in the sun region when people where people are being tortured and killed and raped. so i would say i would say that morale is pretty high within ukrainians side. the battles in east a pretty intense of the moments. the shelling is unremitting and merciless in your view. how critical is the situation right now? how vital is it for you to hold on, for instance, to the eastern city of savior done yet sc? it is important because if they take these territories, it would give them opportunities to go further. and of course, they are not going to stop only on the bus they, they woul

isn't there also a moral auestion a success. isn't there also a moral question that _ a success.tion that at _ a success. isn't there also a moral question that at a _ a success. isn't there also a moral question that at a time _ a success. isn't there also a moral question that at a time when - a success. isn't there also a moral. question that at a time when russia is killing women and children and we see this every day, i have seen it in ukraine, you have been in ukraine on the ground, you have seen the aftermath, but here we are with russia being rewarded with russia getting a deal that is going to help it get its food and fertiliser onto the world market. some would see this as a payoff for russia. that the world market. some would see this as a payoff for russia.- this as a payoff for russia. that is totally wrong- _ this as a payoff for russia. that is totally wrong. it _ this as a payoff for russia. that is totally wrong. it is _ this as a payoff for russia. that is totally wrong. it is not _ this as a payoff for russia. that is totally wrong. it is not russia - this as a

it can be unpleasant for a russian person, this is it, so to speak, the morality of a quaker the morality american newbran, and what they call anew, born christians, but it was all the problems from the west began when they began to refuse god, and not at all and so say some other more abstract things and follow the donkey. are you talking about all the institutions that exist today , the institution of property, the institution of the family, about which michael spoke, the institution of marriage, and that's all there is to it. it was based on these things. that is, continuity is continuity, but a person is here, if we begin to discard the most important foundations for the existence of mankind, moral principles, we discard everything, and we see what this mechanism wrote about. well, not only mikhailovich agrees in this sense, he was the most explicit spokesman. right here you. immediately the devil begins to dance in this whole thing, well , a normal sane person cannot come to mind that there are 46 genders. well, it can't, but here's a man with whom the devil is dancing inside. can yo

difficulties - this is a war, in general a moral difficulty.ave a lot of friends there and well, with whom i worked hard, it’s, well, the hardest thing to see in the donetsk military, they have been at the front for 5 months, and at home in the cities of the dpr, their relatives are under constant ukrainian shelling , and adult children are dying. my wife runs around donetsk from shells, very strong now the center of donetsk is being shelled, and there was no communication with the mother for two or two days. just me being here. well, this is how i should relate to these guys. i don't feel sorry for them. yes, i feel sorry for, perhaps, their families of mothers have children there, but i don’t feel sorry for them. they came to kill us. here, it turned out that the command left its subordinates. well, for the most part, the soldiers themselves disappeared somewhere. in the trench, all the rest fled. these guys are mobilized. well, nobody counts them. for them, it is a bargaining chip. you what did they give weapons and everything. i've been her

like our moral horror. they thought how could any morally awake human being with a military strategy based on the destruction of civilians? >> now to embody that, and another view of how to wage a war was a second character that you mentioned briefly striving from central casting , tell us about curtis lemay. >> the antithesis in every way a child the poverty grew up in the streets of columbus. >> as did i as a matter of fact. my hometown hero. all roads lead to central ohio. >> i did not know that. [laughter] >> he looks like massive square head he has a huge chest a man a few words is an overstatement he speaks and blunt guttural growls. he is ruthless unsentimental blood thirsty and without conscience he thinks the way to fight a war is to be as brutal and unrelenting as possible may be the greatest navy tactician if you talk to an airman who served in the european theater and you asked him who's the greatest to ever saw they would say without question the analogy is like the nba and the nineties you wou

where is your compassion, where is your morality? for asking a personal question, you are a mother, you have a daughter, is that right? i have three daughters. you have three daughters. god forbid, it's a difficult question to put, let alone answer, but if that sort of situation concerned one of your daughters, are you saying you absolutely would insist your daughter carried that child to term and gave birth? i bet if you have kids, you don't talk about them on the air. if you did, they probably told you, "please stop doing that." i'm not talking about my children. if somebody i knew had been raped, somebody i knew had deep needs, the first thing i would do is go after the creep that messed with her and forced her into a situation she did not invite. i would make sure she has the medical care she needs, the emotional care, the therapist she needs, to get beyond this point. and we would discuss then with her, and not with you, what to do about the child in her womb. we would discuss that. here's what i'm saying. you say that aphorism

low morale of ukrainians when it comes to russians invading their country. i think there's also a lot of hope, a key from the ukranian side, when we look at the se, se, and the front are in the direction of harrison in the direction of michel i have where indeed ukrainian or armed forces or have her begin quite consistently. to retake villages and also a discount or offensive sees, you know, a lot of western weapons being used to destroy, for example, a russian, i'm munition warehouses and the likes. oh so there's, there are victories. oh, so in a southern, so finding particularly, and i think that the attention of ukrainians is rather focused on top of the mountains, ukraine's president zalinski. he spoke to ukraine, ukrainians, telling him about the need to prepare for winter. what have you had to say, emma? about the way the war is proceeding. when yesterday, val on him is a lensky ukrainians. president really focused on the, on the years after the war. he, of course pledged for reconstruction of ukraine. that's who said, this would not only mean the reco

do you think washing just have the moral high ground to criticize what's in this respect? well, i think that taking the moral high ground is something you do for political, devons is not necessarily based on, on the realities of politics. i mean, if the united states really was changed to take the moral high ground, it would have been criticizing turkey for the invasion of cyprus, 974 and as continued occupation. and yet, the united states allows turkey to get away with that without any criticism. so when you get an arbitrary criticism, one country or another, but you leave out major offenders. and by the way, the major med is like the people's republic of china, which is taking a number of aggressive moves and really not necessarily invading other countries, but doing other things. and you know, they're not getting criticized by the by whitehouse, over frankly, it's difficult to say which country in the world today can even come out of the moral high ground. it's only a very complicated world. we live in the moment. gregory a copy president of the international cedric stu

where is your compassion, where is your morality?forgive me for asking a personal question, you are a mother, you have a daughter, is that right? i have three daughters. you have three daughters. god forbid, it's a difficult question to put, let alone answer, but if that sort of situation concerned one of your daughters, are you saying you absolutely would insist your daughter carried that child to term and gave birth? i bet if you have kids, you don't talk about them on the air. if you did, they probably told you, "please stop doing that." i'm not talking about my children. if somebody i knew had been raped, somebody i knew had deep needs, the first thing i would do is go after the creep that messed with her and forced her into a situation she did not invite. i would make sure she has the medical care she needs, the emotional care, the therapist she needs, to get beyond this point. and we would discuss then with her, and not with you, what to do about the child in her womb. we would discuss that. here's what i'm saying. you say that

this is a moral and legal failing by our country. it should not cost the average american worker more than a years worth of wages to adopt a child. [applause] frankly, it is time we called on corporate america to do their part. you all have seen the headlines of many corporations that are now offering benefits to employees to be able to travel out of state to seek an abortion. i must tell you i have been inspired. to hear intel of some companies are going the other way. a company called pacific hospitality group and a technology investment company in california got word that the blue cross in california was offering $2000 to pay for people to travel to get an abortion. they announced, even though insurance did not cover it, they were going to pay $7,500 to any employee to pay for adoption services. that is leadership for life and corporate america. [applause] as the radical left continues to rage against the supreme court's decision in the dobbs case, tragically dozens of pregnancy resource centers and pro-life organizations have bee

more smith the moral philosopher. he was at the time a tutor and a professor of moral philosophy and in that book he argued for something. he called mutual sympathy. i think today we'd probably use words more like empathy and he had in mind people being all in and i think if i took the two books together, i could take two meanings of all in that wealth of nations is about all in for me is an individual i should be able to supply my skills in the labor market as an open competitive market you could as an entrepreneur. however, we want the theory moral sentiments is all in the sense of we're all in this. so this is a mass flourishing as a goal and enlightenment thinkers weren't weren't so different in their views. so i think smith has a lot. seders now, what would you say today? you know competition was the linchpin in the wealth of nation. so to understand arguments about the invisible hand and about the superiority of the system elucidates requires a belief that the markets are competitive that firms compete with each

and that is moral courage. trite to say it but that is only because it is so rare in politics, the moral courage to tell the truth even if it hurts me. the marrow courage to raise issues even if they are uncomfortable. —— the moral courage. and the moral courage to rise above the smears and hatred no matter how baseless or unfair. we can be better and we will be better. this courage comes from my family, my mum who ran the local chemist in southampton. and my dad, a local nhs gp. this country gave them the opportunity for a better life and they took it. they had three children, me, my brother and my sister. and they gave everything so that we could have more than they had. it is the most conservative of conservative stories and one that everyone here would recognise. my mum and dad are not here today but my wife and children are and whatever happens at the selection, i have never been prouder to say to them i love you all. applause i have spent a few years in westminster now and a couple of years at the top of

she's so fluent in being able to articulate like the moral imperatives of what she's of what she's after and then there was a group of dsa members in the bronx who are like basically like is okay and it is really useful to have to remember that that there was a time when before she was aoc where she didn't have that like, of course nest to where people were actually really debating whether she could do it whether she had the stuff whether she could make it. what what her weaknesses were what her strengths were whether she could play the game, you know, whether she was too green whether she knew enough like they were having all of these conversations about her as she was before her primary and i just think that it's super important to remember that she was just a person well, why don't you also, you know, take us back a little bit to that time, you know the it was more than just her individual talents or skills like there was something going on in 2018 that that help give to arise right, right. well, i mean so brand new congress which became morphed into is adjacent to justice democrats w

and we see that the morale is very low there. and they, they do not see why they, they should fight for, for, for what they are fighting. they do not see the strategic goal, and they again, like they were told this soldiers were told that people in the ukraine would greed them with the flowers. and instead now they, they come and see the people. everybody hates them. everybody hates them in ukraine . nobody wants to accept the russian army or russian administrations or russia itself. so i think it's just just for sharing and bluffing mostly. so if they, if they are suffer, it would be glosses within the military. then of course they will be drove their forces from the occupied territories. you still see a future for ukraine in the european union. of course, yeah. and majority of ukrainians they are willing to join europe in union and the natal. and this is very important, this factor which is shouldn't, shouldn't be excluded the rece, the real of ukrainian people. and now we see that ukrainians express, ah, their wish to join the

it's not only that you have a set of values and you you moral purpose. but it is that you can find ways to actually get things done. i mean, it's it's it's empty if you're having a moral purpose to be proclaiming all these things and then not work for them. yeah, that's it. and so it's it's important to fill that out and i think there's a real question of what we do to help young people do that. they obviously you know so many people coming out of college today. i find all over the country, and i'm very encouraged by they're an awful lot of people who want to get into service jobs. they they find the capitalism. somehow doesn't fit their their i don't know who they are very well. it doesn't sing to them, but they very very committed to to serving but they just don't know how to it don't and hi, i'm a bit. i become a big believer and not right about this in a book a big believer in national service. and you know, john mccain came big believer in this bill buckley reagan would like this, you know was a big advocate of national service. he wanted to he want

it forces you into moral decisions you don't want to make, right? those guys need to be reminded of that. so, what is this book. this book maybe is one of 1000 books that people should read to remind themselves,. you do not want to go down this path if you can't let all possibly avoid it. >> on that point i will offer another book. once you buy both the audio and the print edition of the bomber mafia, available today, if you are interested in what malcolm was talking about i encourage you to look at a book called, i think it's called to start a war, by robert draper. it is a tiktok on how the bush administration went to war. one of the things that is interesting is, is actually fueled by a lot of idealism. blind, stupid idealism but some degree of idealism. that makes me wonder about war. like, is war pointless? it is war inevitable? i think it's neither pointless nor inevitable. we had to go to war against the germans in the second world war. we didn't have a choice. >> and the japanese. >> we blew our opportunity to stop hitler. what's choice to b
