Of course I think my values are the best. If I didn't. I'd hold different ones. I don't think they're best due to my 'cultural identity'https://twitter.com/almdean/status/886987764952117249 …

But no-one would say 'I hold these values but admit that those other ones are better' because then in what sense do they hold the former?
-
Clever. In the sense that the values you think are best *are* your values, you think your values are the best.
-
I don't see how it can be any other way. I don't understand what people mean when they say things which suggest they do.
-
In the sense - I use an Apple laptop, but I can appreciate that maybe similarly priced PC laptops could actually be superior.
-
Similarly, I might live according to one set of values, but appreciate that someone else's approach may actually be better than mine.
-
But this again is admitting that you don't live up to a standard you actually think is better.
-
Don't most people accept that they don't live up to the standard they think is the best?
-
Yes, absolutely. I argue for being charitable & patient & courteous & then sometimes yell at ppl. This isn't coz I think latter is better.
