In Our Tribe We Trust

- This is one of a series of videos I'm doing that introduce the elements of what I call "tribal literacy" -- what citizens should know about the ways that our social identities influence how we view ourselves and the world. Links below.
The link above will take you to a blog post with suggestions for additional reading on the topics I discuss in the video:

This channel is a gold mine of knowledge. Thank you for your work Kevin.
I don’t understand why this has so few views, if only more of those I know took some time to watch what you produce, I think humanity might shift microscopically in the right direction
@Kevin deLaplante I'm slightly disappointed that this doesn't take into account one's ability to forecast a variety of outcomes and base their decision upon that. Also, on that same note I find it disappointing this doesn't connect these abstract explanations with real world examples - a major failing of education worldwide for decades and centuries.
You can't just leave it up to people's imagination, nor your own, to fill in the blanks of exactly the specific kinds of biases people harbor or take into account how precisely they obtained said bias.
This leaves students up to fill in those blanks, and they either will with bullshit made up examples, or they won't; with an extremely rare and miniscule portion of the total number of students learning this topic actually going into research to discover & model them. And lastly a small or even zero percentage of that small percentage of people who do actually produce the data models will hoard it for their own gain.
Even the most tenuous biases can become unraveled like a Prince Ruperts Drop. These ideas need to be presented along with those patterns or they make little to no sense, and, in that case, we're not really checking the work, are we?
Wouldn't the individualism side be based more on selfishness and a narrow minded short sided egocentric point of view? Maybe they are fearful that they wont have the freedom to be greedy, selfish and exploit others if they are forced to become more equal and a part of the collective? Isn't becoming more equal with others a narcissists worst nightmare as well as people with entitlement personality disorders? Perhaps that fear of being equal and the desire to stay on top is what drives the rationalizations against scientific consensus like climate change? Doesn't this narcissistic and entitled mentality correlate with racial supremacy, nationalism and national exceptionalism? What does the psychological model of spiral dynamics have to say about this? Perhaps is what determines ones tribal moral epistemic tendencies is what state of psychological development they are at?
Is this based on research? Or just the narrator 's idea on how the world works? Who the fuck thinks this way, anyway? And if it is so, it refers to uneducated people. Why do I care? I mean, I d rather enhance my decision making skills. But this video talks about imbecile decision making. I guess somebody has to study this as well...
This stuff is implicit, i.e on the subconscious level. So, people don't make conscious decisions like this. The conscious part happens after the implicit part and therefore the conscious part is usually a backwards rationalization. So, even you make decisions like this, you just aren't aware of it. Like the narrator said it takes awareness to see this in yourself. Thats the first stem to gaining control over it.
15:35 I dissagree... ASk people who "belonged" to USSR in 70s orr 80s and ask then what they prefer. They will tell exact possite of the cultural group they belonged then.
Some ya, some no. How many Whites want to belong to the diversity shitfest in the USA? I dont
On a separate subject of psychology and critical thinking, I was wondering what kind of sketchbook and markers/pens you're using? I don't know if it was covered in an older video or on your blog/Patreon (I haven't seen any info about what art materials you use so far).
Part of the reason I'm asking out of curiosity because I'm an aspiring artist myself and watch lots of drawing/art tutorials that list their materials.
I LOVE this! I just discover your channel and I am currently devouring your videos. Fantastic stuff! Liked and subscribed❤️
This, and your other videos on tribes are amazing! Perfectly explained, thank you!
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOUUUUUUUU FOR THIS. Your work is invaluable.
Great video! Really looking forward to your next, as it's also something I am currently studying -- any idea when it will come out?
Very deep!
Not to make it look like I missed the entire point of this video, I promise I didn't, but out of curiosity Kevin, do you know about Thorium reactors and nuclear waste recycling ?
"very little empirical knowledge"
Reminds me of this article:
"quillette.com/2016/12/25/in-praise-of-ignorance/"
I have to applaud you and everyone else trying to increase the awareness of this phenomenon in people.
Now as to your chart, I would fall on the "individualist egalitarian" bottom-left square, which, let's not be confused, puts me in bottom right purple "right-libertarian" square of the political compass chart one finds more often on the internet. Although, as it turns out, not that far off from the border with the blue square right above it.
Apparently, a recent study by the very same Yale university showed that people who gravitate towards similar political positions as me have a much more strictly analytical approach to politics that those who gravitate further away. Is this true i your experience ?
"Think of people who watch Fox News all the time versus people who watch CNN all the time"
What of those who watch neither most of the time, nor their equivalent in their own country ? Just about all of the journalism and politics I follow is on RUclips, and for that matter, 90% of it isn't really about news at all.
Kevin, I think you would be great on the non sequitur show talking about these issues. I don't want to talk for Kyle and Steve but I am sure they could give you some grest exposure!
Kevin, I've taken a class on Udemy of yours and this video series is wonderful. I hope you can find a way to keep producing such thought provoking content. Your ability to present in pictures the distilled theories of Motivated Reasoning for example is extremely helpful. After all about eighty percent of our brain is devoted to interpreting what we see :).
Thanks for sharing your deep knowledge and insight into these very complex issues.
So say I find a youtuber that I agree with on gun control issues. Does that mean I would be more inclined to agree with them on other issues, and is that an example of cultural cognition?
Yes!!! Love new this series
Surely my cultural identification effects my political party affiliations?
Dear Kevin, your videos are great! Thank you so much!
Excellent presentation. Gave me a lot to consider. Thank you!
Super awesome! Thank you so much.
Nice video finally. Good work
What if the 'tribe' you identify with is science and critical thinking? Can that even be considered a tribe?
I should have been clearer. Obviously I see people outside my tribe as being outside my tribe. My question concerns the effect that tribalism has on critical thinking; if your tribe identifies closely with careful, rational thinking, will tribalism still get in the way? It almost sounds goofy, but I am open to the possibility.
Where is your ted talk?
Very Good!!! =)
Amazing! I loved it. It was very clear and mind opening. I already had a sense of this but didn't have the vocabulary nor the way to reason about it in an ordered way as you have beautifully done it here. Thanks for that.
it gets better after 10'. At least I heard a name of a researcher....
the first 5' are crap. Let's move on...
Very underrated video series
