# The Abolition of Man: Charlie Kirk, Iryna Zarutska, and Moral Blindness (Mythic Mind, ep. 110)

## In this episode

Two murders hit the feed in a way we were never meant to watch: Iryna Zarutska on a Charlotte train, then Charlie Kirk. Grief, rage, and online celebration of evil followed. Dr. Andrew Snyder (professor of philosophy and theology) reads those reactions through C.S. Lewis’s The Abolition of Man.

This Mythic Mind episode is not punditry. It is a Lewis-shaped look at moral blindness, the Tao Lewis defended, and what happens when a culture loses the language of good and evil while gaining an artificial omniscience through social media.

Topics include casual exposure to death online, the irrationality of heinous evil, and why The Abolition of Man still names our moment.
