Reading his Globe byline, the average reader would have no idea that Hanania is a white supremacist and misogynist

Richard Hanania is president of the Center for the Study of Partisanship and Ideology, which funds policy research. He is the author of the new book “Kakistocracy,” from which this essay is adapted.

Que risa que uno 100% puede leer esto desde la lógica de Weber en la Ética Protestante. Tener días sin trabajar es de católicos, los protestantes están ocupados produciendo y salvando su alma atreves de su vocación.

These are not fully formed ideas but what I am sensing is a toxic combination of: - So few people reading quality fiction where you have to put yourself in someone else's shoes & actually pay attention, rather than reading passively. This results in lacking basic reading skills.

The literacy crisis is not just referring to people's ability to literally read and write. It's also people's inability to read for context. I've been a public educator for over 20 years and I have never, ever seen it this bad.

Annoyed by this strip because this was already answered in Batman and Robin (the movie) of all places. Batman proceeds to save all the people involved, because he is so badass that he just punches moral dilemmas in the face; he can save everyone, he is Batman.

This is an important new meta-study that shows that "ingroup love" does not necessarily link to "outgroup hate". I have long thought that, at least at the mass level, both "nativism" and "populism" are primarily about the "hate" of the Other and, hence, are more xenophobia and anti-establishment.

The co-occurrence of ingroup and outgroup prosociality across
121 societies

Kasper Otten

n an increasingly interconnected world, prosociality across group boundaries becomes ever more important. Yet, a common premise in the behavioral and social sciences is that people are prosocial mainly toward their ingroup and not outgroups. So far, evidence for this premise comes mostly from studies in which people must choose between ingroup and outgroup prosociality, thereby precluding positive associations between the two types of prosociality. We study situations in which people make separate decisions regarding the ingroup and outgroup, allowing us to examine how ingroup and outgroup prosociality are related. Across six large-scale and cross-societal datasets spanning 743,402 individuals in 121 societies, we find a robust positive relationship between ingroup and outgroup prosociality. This relationship holds across societies, different group categorizations, and a diverse range of prosociality measures, including
prisoner’s dilemmas, public good dilemmas, dictator games, and survey items on trust and tolerance. Although people are slightly more prosocial toward their ingroup than the outgroup, those who are prosocial toward the ingroup also tend to be prosocial toward the outgroup. The results offer an optimistic message for prosociality across group boundaries. When people are not made to choose between the ingroup and outgroup, they are generally prosocial toward both.

I just got to the part in Don Quixote when Quixote gets so beat up fighting sheep that he asks Sancho to count how many molars he has left and when Sancho looks in his mouth Quixote vomits in Sancho's face "more vigorously than if he were firing a musket."
