Beskrivelse

In August 2022, at a packed school board meeting in Grapevine, Texas, a mom approaches the microphone and describes the exact nightmare that Republican politicians have been warning about. She accuses a teacher of convincing her child to change genders. As a result, she says, “I lost my son.” But when NBC News reporters Mike Hixenbaugh and Antonia Hylton look into this mother’s allegations, they find a different story: of a transgender child desperately wanting to be heard, a mother determined to put God first — and an English teacher caught in the middle. And they discover this isn’t just a story about one broken family. It’s also a story about a fringe religious movement wielding newfound power and the revival of a long-simmering quest by evangelicals to remake American education based on their version of biblical values. From NBC News Studios and the team behind the Peabody Award-winning series Southlake, Grapevine is a podcast about faith and power — and what it means to protect children — in an American suburb.

The equality of contending for a world view

The makers of this podcast haven't argued for their starting moral assumptions in which they go on to critique the conservative positions and actions. If they did analyze their moral foundations they would soon understand that their moral intuitions are no more valid or invalid as the conservative moral intuitions.

They assume that their moral intuitions are the proper moral starting points to critique other moral starting points. In a relative universe in which groups of people stand together to create an order based on moral intuitions, the creators of this podcast seem unaware that in a democracy different groups are simply contending for their moral vision on equal ground. They might not like the different visions but democracy is the arena where you might lose. The podcast seems to assume the conservative view is somewhat out of bounds in a democracy and only the progressive view should be the standard. Fact is the moral foundations of progressive values are no more established then conservative foundations, they are simply relativistic moral intuitions as are the conservative institutions. That leaves the body politic with a choice on what intuitions win out. It just seems this podcast is upset that the body politic has given more credence to conservative intuitions over the progressive.
