How to Respond to Wokeness | TPP #91 | Duncan Reyburn

In this episode of the Pioneer Podcast, Duncan Reyburn explores the deep philosophical roots of modern identity politics, showing how G.K. Chesterton diagnosed today's cultural crises over a century ago. The conversation traces the origins of "wokeness" back to late medieval philosophies that wage a "war on reality" by forcefully declaring truth rather than discovering it. Ultimately, Duncan explains that the best antidote to this resentment-driven ideology is recognising our human limitations and cultivating gratitude.
