Insightful talk on the open secret of problematic self-reported values & how to redeem them to study collectivism by @ThomasTalhelm yesterday at @KuSamf. 🤯 liberals struggling to love their families but have a big ❤️ for generic others. h/t to @SeamusAPower for organizing.
I had fun presenting at the beautiful University of Copenhagen today! Thanks to @SeamusAPower (the academic, not the pro golfer!) 😆
