A think tank (IHS) and public intellectuals are creating a single, branded online forum—Liberalism.org—intended to gather, curate, and amplify classical liberal argument and debate in an accessible, public-facing format. The project explicitly positions itself as a modern 'coffee house' for weighing tradeoffs and assembling a coherent liberal tradition.
— If successful, the site could concentrate elite attention and resources behind a curated liberal narrative, shaping what counts as mainstream liberal arguments and who gets platformed.
