Classically Abby Doesn't Understand The Righteous Mind by Jonathan Haidt

Episode notes
We all have our disagreements, but why does it sometimes feel like the person on the other side sees the world in such a radically different way? Diana and Irina discuss Jonathan Haidt's take on this issue, in his book The Righteous Mind. They also reference a hilariously bad review of the book made by self-described 'Conservative influencer' Abigail Shapiro (more commonly known by all those bombarded with her ads on Youtube as Clasically Abby) and the many ways in which Haidt's and other researchers' insights are misconstrued in the public sphere.
