9 Lessons I Learned From Jonathan Haidt About This Generation of Anxiety, Tribal Thinking, and The Righteous Mind
In the early 2000s, if you were a teenager with a secret, it stayed within the confines of a notebook, a whispered conversation, or maybe—at most—a chat room that took minutes to load on dial-up.
Fast forward two decades, and that secret now echoes through Snapchat stories, TikTok stitches, and group chats that never sleep. Something changed. Not slowly. Not subtly.
But with the force of a cultural earthquake. And Jonathan Haidt, a moral psychologist turned modern-day anthropologist, has made it his mission to map the tremors.
Haidt's work doesn't begin with technology. It begins with morality. With why two people can watch the same video clip, read the same news article, or observe the same social movement and walk away with wildly different emotions. He doesn't start by blaming the algorithm. He starts with the mind.
Because to understand the anxiety epidemic, the rise of tribal outrage, or the erosion of public discourse, you must first understand something older than the internet: the ancient architecture of human psychology.
