Do most US citizens really want what's best for others?

10. What drives the author of The Righteous Mind

You might take a look at the Heterodox Academy, with which the author of The Righteous Mind, Jonathan Haidt, is associated. The "Heterodox Academy" espouses "political diversity." Read some of the articles and see if you still think it's any real "diversity" this "Academy" is interested in. The Heterodox Academy was founded in September 2015, shortly before articles about "fragile" college students started to flood the internet (these days you're "fragile" if you object to racial epithets directed at you). It's of interest that the Heterodox Academy professes to hate the social sciences, even though the right wing depends heavily upon the social sciences for structuring its propaganda, and corporations depend on at least one social science, anthropology, to help them destroy other cultures. (N.B: Not all anthropologists are "lefties", e.g. Napoleon Chagnon, darling of the right,is employed at the University of Missouri in Columbia, Missouri.)
