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 gives a full breakdown and background on the recent election in Venezuela. Most reports show that the opposition movement, unified under María Corina Machado and Edmundo González Urrutia, won close to 80% of the vote. However, the authoritarian and entrenched regime of Nicolás Maduro declared victory, only with 51% of the vote (which is telling for an autocracy). Now the Venezuelan people are angry, María Corina is in hiding, and Alex (amongst others) worries that the worst is yet to come while the clock is also ticking on Maduro’s time in power.
