About this episode
Might Makes Right.
No Truth but Power.
History is written by the Victor.
These phrases often say one thing, but try to communicate another. When we casually say that might makes right, we aren't typically saying that morality comes from greater strength. When it comes to disputes, it often sounds like a shortcut to some form of solution, or a criticism of inaction.
But what if we were to look at the statement as an argument itself. What if we were to zoom in to a dispute between two people or as far out as we can conceive in metaphysics?
