Listen "The Righteous Mind by Jonathan Haidt | Why Good People Disagree on Morals"
Episode Synopsis
🎙 Welcome to The Quiet Footnote — where we don’t just summarize books, we soften the noise and listen for the wisdom beneath it.In this episode, we step into The Righteous Mind by Jonathan Haidt — a fascinating journey into why good people are divided by politics and religion, and why our moral compasses often point in different directions.This isn’t about proving who’s right.It’s about understanding why we all believe we are.“We don’t seek truth. We seek belonging.”Haidt blends psychology, anthropology, and evolutionary theory to reveal that our moral judgments spring from intuition first, reasoning second — and that we’re all riding an elephant we barely control.💡 What’s Inside This Summary:Why moral reasoning is often just post-game commentaryThe six moral foundations that shape every societyHow evolution wired us for both selfishness and cooperationWhy “us vs. them” thinking is so hard to escapeHow to have conversations across moral divides🌍 Why It Matters Now:In a time when debates turn to battles and differences feel like threats, The Righteous Mind invites us to trade outrage for curiosity — to step into the minds of others, not to change them, but to see them.🕯 Because understanding is the bridge we build before we cross.
