    Reminds me of tribalism talks.

    • Tribal Thinking

      • https://conversational-leadership.net/tribal-thinking/
      • The meaning of the word tribe
      • Sticking to tribal beliefs
      • Politically motivated reasoning
      • 1, Skincare experiment
        1. Gun-control Experiment
      • A big surprise
      • Bottom line
        • “This experiment demonstrates that our political pre-dispositions can strongly influence our numerical reasoning regardless of our political persuasion.”

    • Are Smart People Ruining Democracy? | Dan Kahan | TEDxVienna [13:05 | Dec 10, 2018 | TEDx Talks]


    • Tribalism: How to Be Part of the Solution, Not the Problem

      • Whether it’s race, religion, or politics, tribalism threatens all we hold dear. [July 31, 2022| John G. Cottone Ph.D. The Cube]

        • https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/the-cube/202207/tribalism-how-be-part-the-solution-not-the-problem
        • To keep our tribalist impulses in check, I believe we must regularly ask ourselves difficult questions:

          • Do I know how to recognize the propaganda of my own tribe, and resist it when I see it?

          • Do I recognize that every event can be viewed from multiple perspectives and that my tribe’s perspective is just one of many?

          • Do I pursue multiple perspectives on important issues with intellectual honesty — or do I only solicit my own tribe’s political perspective?

          • Do I call out members of my own tribe for bad behavior as often as I call out members of rival tribes — or do I rationalize and ignore their transgressions?

          • Do I have compassion for everyone on the road of truth, even those who are walking today where I walked yesterday?

    Articles mentioned:

    The Public Defender’s Office, an independent arm of the Justice Ministry, said on Thursday that its lawyers would not represent the Oct. 7 defendants, arguing that the existing legal process for terrorist cases was ill-suited to this situation. It was a significant declaration for an agency created to defend society’s most disfavored, including indigent criminal defendants and people accused of terrorism.

    “Much more needs to be done to protect civilians and to make sure that humanitarian assistance reaches them,” Mr. Blinken told reporters in New Delhi after a diplomatic tour through Middle Eastern and Asian nations. “Far too many Palestinians have been killed. Far too many have suffered these past weeks. And we want to do everything possible to prevent harm to them and to maximize the assistance that gets to them.”

    Hamas and Israel are negotiating two hostage release proposals, one involving a small number of people and one that could involve 100 or more civilians being held in Gaza, according to officials briefed on the talks.

    “We have very serious concerns that these amount to disproportionate attacks in breach of international humanitarian law,” said Volker Türk, the U.N.’s high commissioner for human rights. He cited Israeli strikes on six locations in Gaza, including Jabaliya, Gaza City and Khan Younis.

    Israeli police detained five prominent Arab Israeli politicians for several hours on Thursday, including former lawmakers, as they prepared to hold a vigil in the city of Nazareth to protest Israel’s military campaign in Gaza, two Israeli civic associations said. The groups denounced the action, saying it constituted suppression of free speech.
