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 talks about how democracies such as Poland, the United States, Germany, Romania, and more, are facing an issue every election that makes reform and progress difficult. Basically, every election is now marketed as “existential” and this rhetoric makes it hard for pragmatic, incumbent leaders to get enough time to actually put forward long term policies. Alex talks about the doom spiral between populist elections, centrist oppositions, and the recent presidential election in Poland. Alex also talks about the Trump-Musk feud and why he thinks Musk has more to lose.
