Defending liberalism: interview with Helen Pluckrose

Helen Pluckrose is a writer and critic who focuses on 'Critical Social Justice ideology', colloquially known as 'wokeism', and its threat to liberal democratic freedoms. She was part of the Grievance Studies hoax and is the author of Cynical Theories: How Activist Scholarship Made Everything About Race, Gender, and Identity—and Why This Harms Everybody (2020, with James Lindsay) and The Counterweight Handbook: Principled Strategies for Surviving and Defeating Critical Social Justice Ideology - at Work, in Schools and Beyond (2024). She writes about these and other issues on Substack: https://www.hpluckrose.com/about.

Freethinker editor Daniel James Sharp interviewed her over Zoom about the foregoing and much else besides: her background, religion and the 'New Theism', feminism and the gender wars, and more.
