This movement deals with the mistreatment of many people, primarily females, and how they are treated as inferior to males. Events embedded in this movement arise frequently, such as the discovery of women’s involvement in NASA, or the high French court ruling on the allowance of burkinis. Two articles, both taken from National Geographic, scrutinize these controversial dealings and their…

Both Nietzsche and Marx challenge the dominant ideas in their societies. For Nietzsche, the dominate idea was Christian morality, and for Marx, capitalistic ideology. Two people differentiate in their ways of argument and intentions of arguments.

Each newspaper has a bias, and each writer has their own upbringing and events which affect their writing. Janet Malcolm’s “The Journalist and the Murderer” helps to exemplify this through Joe McGinniss’s reporting and Malcolm’s take on his reporting. Both Malcolm and McGinniss pursue truth, but are unable to portray it in an objective manner.…

The second argument Nagel gives to prove objectivity is reason. To reason is to think systematically in ways anyone looking over someones shoulder ought to be able to recognize as correct. It is this generality that relativists and subjectivists deny.4 The essential characteristic of reasoning is its generality.5 The generality of reasons mean that they apply not only in identical circumstances but also in relevantly similar circumstances-and that what counts as a relevant similarity or…
