It appears that we start with moral intuitions that our brains then
find evidence to support. For example, one experiment involved
hypnotizing subjects to expect a flash of disgust at the word “take.”
They were then told about Dan, a student council president who “tries
to take topics that appeal to both professors and students.”
What are they meaning about 'conservatives' and 'liberals'? Is there
some sort of understood US taxonomy that we're not aware of?
I suspect Republican and Democrat, but see Rokeach's two-value system
of human values, e.g.,
