Insightful thread from @alicemazzy.
I’d add: it’s not about “values.” Those are empty signifiers used merely to construct post hoc rationalizations.
Significant instead is the texture of personal experience: different according to social position.

Might that depend on the degree of self-awareness of the person talking about their values? I tend to think most, but not all, people talking about their ‘values’ are deceiving themselves and posturing (without conscious intent, I assume), but some seem to get what they’re about.

Yes, I think that’s right. The construction of a systematic self (in Kegan’s sense) involves bringing activity increasingly in line with explicitly-held values.

I don't see how, maybe the idea requires something longer than a tweet to communicate properly.

I’m afraid so!
