The big problems we're facing -- preeminently climate but also in the short term the pandemic -- require strong assertion of normative principles. But liberalism, going back to wars of religion, is shy about normative principles & prefers expertise & procedures: IOW we're fucked

Disagree about Rawls. But my point is if you are going to condemn a theory you should not cite specific thinkers but explain what in the theory gives rise to such thinking. Human beings are flawed and are full of complex motives. Liberalism, at its heart, is anti-tyrannical.
