Age of rage: the psychology behind our moral outrage
Manage episode 463109443 series 71
Politics, war, abortion, gun control — why do some topics make us so outraged?
One theory is that our preoccupation with preventing harm is to blame.
So today, we examine how humans developed morality, why we differ in what we consider right and wrong, and how that drives us to moral outrage.
And after all of that, we'll find out how to have better conversations with people you disagree with (even if you're feeling outraged).
If you want to hear more about that, check out The skills supercommunicators use, which you can learn too.
