Alex Kopytko is a ”radical centrist” that wants to understand the extremes. He has worked in politics and has studied public policy and political science. Alex argues that centrism is less about being a contrarian, it is about being able to change your mind and embrace an openness to new ideas. He is concerned about where the United States is headed and through conversations with people from all sides of the political spectrum, he wants to know how Americans can limit the tribalism that is flourishing. As someone that dances along the center-right of the political spectrum, Alex thinks the country needs to come together and talk to one another before it could be too late. This podcast covers domestic politics, as well as political philosophy, and international issues.

In this episode, Alex starts by giving a movie recommendation and talking about why he dislikes Black Friday. Then he talks about Argentina’s new president-elect, Javier Milei. Milei is a unique, anarcho-capitalist with dangerous views that are all covered up by his flamboyant and entertaining personality. Alex laughs and cries about what his future in Argentina may hold. Finally, Alex talks about Sam Altman’s firing at OpenAI and what it means in the “Open Civil War of AI” between tech capitalists and utilitarians. It seems like Altman’s firing could just help Microsoft gain influence over a troubling and powerful new technology.
