Okay, as I understand the discussion so far:
The RP authors said they were concerned about PR risk from a leftist critique
I wrote this post, explaining how I think those concerns could more productively be addressed
You asked, why I’m focusing on Leftist Ethics in particular
I replied, because I haven’t seen authors cite concerns about PR risk stemming from other kinds of critique
That’s all my comment was meant to illustrate, I think I pretty much agree with your initial comment.
Ah, I see. Thanks!
