  • Reminds me of tribalism talks.

    • Tribal Thinking

      • https://conversational-leadership.net/tribal-thinking/
      • The meaning of the word tribe
      • Sticking to tribal beliefs
      • Politically motivated reasoning
      • 1, Skincare experiment
        1. Gun-control Experiment
      • A big surprise
      • Bottom line
        • “This experiment demonstrates that our political pre-dispositions can strongly influence our numerical reasoning regardless of our political persuasion.”

    • Are Smart People Ruining Democracy? | Dan Kahan | TEDxVienna [13:05 | Dec 10, 2018 | TEDx Talks]


    • Tribalism: How to Be Part of the Solution, Not the Problem

      • Whether it’s race, religion, or politics, tribalism threatens all we hold dear. [July 31, 2022| John G. Cottone Ph.D. The Cube]

        • To keep our tribalist impulses in check, I believe we must regularly ask ourselves difficult questions:

          • Do I know how to recognize the propaganda of my own tribe, and resist it when I see it?

          • Do I recognize that every event can be viewed from multiple perspectives and that my tribe’s perspective is just one of many?

          • Do I pursue multiple perspectives on important issues with intellectual honesty — or do I only solicit my own tribe’s political perspective?

          • Do I call out members of my own tribe for bad behavior as often as I call out members of rival tribes — or do I rationalize and ignore their transgressions?

          • Do I have compassion for everyone on the road of truth, even those who are walking today where I walked yesterday?
