The Righteous Mind

Jonathan Haidt's The Righteous Mind: Why Good People Are Divided by Politics and Religion — a moral psychology toolkit that explains why people with different political and religious views cannot understand each other: moral foundations theory (Care, Fairness, Loyalty, Authority, Sanctity, Liberty), the intuition-first "rider and elephant" model, the hive hypothesis of human nature, and why liberals are missing half of morality. Covers 7 use cases: ① Moral Foundations Theory — the 6 foundations ("Why people disagree about morality" "Moral psychology") ② Intuition Comes First — the rider and the elephant ("Why reasoning is not rational" "Intuition vs reason") ③ The Conservative Advantage — using more foundations ("Why conservatives understand liberals better") ④ The Hive Hypothesis — the 10% bee ("Collective identity" "Group selection" "Sacred values") ⑤ The Righteous Mind — why good people are divided ("Political polarization" "Understanding the other side") ⑥ Religion as Team Sport — Durkheim vs Weber ("Why religion evolved" "Belonging vs believing") ⑦ Transcending the Divide — how to talk across differences ("How to disagree productively" "Bridging political divides") Trigger when users say: "The Righteous Mind" "Jonathan Haidt" "Moral foundations" "Why people disagree" "Political division" "Care/harm" "Fairness/cheating" "Loyalty/betrayal" "Authority/subversion" "Sanctity/degradation" "Liberty/oppression" "Rider and elephant" "Intuition first" "Moral psychology" "Hive switch" "Group selection" or mention: Jonathan Haidt / Righteous Mind / moral foundations / care / fairness / loyalty / authority / sanctity / liberty / rider and elephant / intuition / reasoning / group selection / hive / Durkheim / Weber / moral dumbfounding / liberal / conservative / political psychology / sacred values / religion / team sport / parochial altruism.
