There are a lot of good materials coming out; I usually hear the authors interviewed on National Public Radio or Public Broadcasting (TV). I try to bookmark or save citations, but they fly past so quickly. Despite this, few people seem to be trying to bridge anything these days.

From the article:

I haven’t known Jackson for long, but I believe that he would sacrifice himself for the greater good, and I can see that his classmates believe it too. Even if they don’t share his willingness to throw the switch on a family member, they see him as principled, not cruel. It’s a type of selflessness and consistency that seems lacking in contemporary discourse, in which people are too willing to prioritize what’s politically expedient over fundamental values. It’s what feels wrong, for example, about liberal intolerance of dissenting speech, especially on campus, or the rush to punish alleged sexual predators without due process. And it’s what feels equally wrong about conservatives who claim to revere life, and yet can display such brazen cruelty to immigrants and prisoners.

Libertarians seem to despise everyone, making it easy to dismiss their arguments.
