What’s the difference between a bias and a value? (Other than values being consciously endorsed)

-
we can't actually tell "i acted inconsistently with my values" from "i acted inconsistently with the values i want you to believe i have" from the outside in the moment, of course, but whether they update their biases in the long term is relevant
-
then of course we call values that are antagonistic toward abstract groups of people "biases" for the propaganda weight and the IAT, if valid at all, is a tool for measuring people's non-volitional racist biases and polemicizing them as if they were volitional racist values

"hate is not a family value" oh my sweet summer child

values are *aspirational*, like 'lying is bad', yeah.

One of my big values is 'everything you do, do on purpose', and I'd be surprised if I hit 10% on that in any given day. It's *really hard*.

there is this scene in Andromeda where Tyr Anasazi says, all hurt-like because he's being such a good Nietzschean and isn't getting the right feedback for it, "do you not admire my ambition?" i admire your ambition
