Should I take that as you meaning that we don't actually care about things, that the experience of caring is a construction of our internal PR-officer so to speak? I'm somewhat sympathetic to a version of that but not as a complete theory, I think.
Oh, I have no idea why I care about anomalocaridids! I was asking @everytstudies to explain what he thought counts as a value, if it’s a narrower category than “thing one cares about.”

Right. But if you did have a conception of why they appeal, would that reflect on ‘values’ in a way that just knowing you like it in isolation doesn’t?

I guess I can’t answer that, because I don’t think the “values” concept is actually useful for thinking about things like this.
