5 Disagreements That Stayed With Us
Conversations we can't stop thinking about from 2024.
TD Community,
Since launching our first podcast episode in March, we've moderated more than 20 expert disagreements, all on topics that are thorny and hard to navigate.
Our guests debated and steel-manned their way through everything from immigration policy, to nuclear energy, to whether or not to have kids. So as we close out 2024, we wanted to spotlight a few.
While we disagreed - healthily - on our favorites, we agreed that there were a handful of hard questions that we can't stop mulling over.
Here are five of the disagreements that stayed with us in 2024.
1. What are the causes of ADHD? Are they biological or environmental?
2. What is the current state of American power? Should the U.S. intervene in foreign conflicts? What are the alternatives?
3. Should terminally ill patients be given the choice to end their own lives?
4. What is the best way to treat young people who are experiencing gender dysphoria?
5. What is the rationale behind policing and incarceration? Will reforming the criminal justice system make us safer?
Here's to many happy and healthy disagreements in 2025,
Team TD
