A. Hayek in his book The Fatal Conceit, \u201cthat the widely held conception of \u2018social justice\u2019 either describes a possible state of affairs or is even meaningful.\u201d  Hayek would complain \u201csocial\u201d was a sort of \u201cweasel word\u201d that carried a lot of unexamined prescriptions.  To call something \u201csocial justice\u201d is to advocate for something without bothering to fully explore what that something might even be.   What are the philosophical underpinnings of social justice?  What does it practically mean, and how could it practically apply.  And what ought we to do when the goals of \u201csocial justice\u201d conflict with actual justice?   Saving Elephants host Josh Lewis is joined by Ryan Rogers who shares his story of experiencing the social justice movement in graduate school and his efforts to fully understand it origins, merits, and faults.   About Ryan Rogers Ryan Rogers is a graduate student in clinical mental health counseling. He has a bachelors degree in psychology and a work history in addiction treatment.  His latest book, The Woke Mind, will be available in early 2025.  It is the sixth book in his series on social justice fanaticism.   ","author_name":"Saving Elephants | Millennials defending & expressing conservative values","author_url":"https:\/\/www.savingelephantsblog.com\/","html":"
