This is a clip from a longer video:
"Cognitive Biases, Tribalism and Politics (Part 3 of 3): How Polarization Makes Us Mean and Stupid"
Topics:
- a three-channel model of political values
- value channel profiles for the libertarian, the progressive liberal, and the conservative
- can I be a libertarian AND a progressive liberal AND a conservative?
- sources of “pathological tribalism”
- analogy: Black Mirror episode, “Men Against Fire”
- trading off critical thinking values and political values
Topics covered in the other two videos in this series (you should really start here!):
1. Cognitive Biases, Tribalism and Politics (Part 1 of 3): We Can Value More Than One Kind of Thing
- the "two movies" phenomenon (Scott Adams)
the distinction between "psychological" value pluralism and "philosophical" value pluralism
- what is affect bias?
- what is cultural cognition?
- your "value channel profile"
2. Cognitive Biases, Tribalism and Politics (Part 2 of 3): Attention, Focus and Exaggeration
- what is the focusing illusion?
- what is availability bias?
- what is the mere-exposure effect?
- how do these cognitive biases interact to create an exaggerated and distorted perception of reality?
These videos were created by Kevin deLaplante. You can learn more about who I am and what I do at
