It depends on the subject. Are we talking about things like crypto projects or are we talking about “how do you know good thing is good” type of stuff?

With the latter, knowing is different from showing.

Well, I subscribe to Hume's moral skepticism, and I am not generally a fan, like Hume, of a priori reasoning at all. So I think the view generally can apply to everything.

Obviously, I'm not interested in debating whether the sky is blue. But when it comes to ideology, politics, culture and ethics ... I take nothing for granted in these domains.

I think this kind of “evidence based virtue” is how you end up with a whole host of heinous ideas. Just look how the 20th century french philosophers ended up haha
