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.

Sorry, I hadn’t figured out how to reply to your earlier tweets yet. I guess I’m not sure how you are using the word “values”; e.g. how close it is to the everyday usage vs. a specialized technical one; and quite what work you want it to do.

It is specialized but congruent with a common meaning of the word. I am labeling communicable ideas that guide us in action but which are about manner of approach rather than outcome. Some examples: https://workflowy.com/s/BXLe.pGpfIWygY3 … Look carefully, you'll find many use it this way.

This seems like a useful notion… maybe it’s closer to “virtues” than “values”? Nearly all the examples in your document seem like they would count as “virtues” in a standard virtue-ethics framing?
