The Dangers of Tribalism

This needs waaaaaay more views. Everyone should understand this.

There can be no peace until they renounce their rabbit god and accept our duck god.

Tribalism is a core driver of human behavior and as such needs to be recognized and understood by all. Thanks for this excellent presentation.

Wow. Amazing lesson. You opened my eyes to my own behavior and how damaging it can be. And confirmed my thought that unfriending people because they have different ideas than you actually makes the problem worse. Thank you. I'm sharing!

So Liberals vs Conservatives tribalism in a nutshell since both think they're on the right side of history.

This needs to be a lesson for social studies.

Wisdom is accepting our differences and focusing on our common group.

Love the drawings and how they add to the dialogue. So much better than music that is often distracting or jarring and actually subtracts from a unified message. I also like the length of the video. 'Deep dives' of an hour plus can be great depending on topic, but other times you want something shorter.

this video is much appreciated. i think it's very necessary nowadays. it's nice to hear this issue represented calmly and educating. in general, your sketches are precise and well thought-through. i personally like that /thumbup

Just found this video when looking for information about tribalism. Brilliant stuff, the drawings were a super way to help communivate the ideas.

Kevin, thank you for this series. It has been very helpful to understand this topic.

Really well done Kevin--you always had a talent for explaining complex ideas clearly and accessibly

Very well put together.Thank you so much, I will be using this in class!!

It seems to me that the information in this video is becoming increasingly important in our world. Very informative and comprehensive.

Thanks for an excellent video. I love the presentation format which is very clear and concise. I would say though that I don't think that polarisation necessarily drives a reduction in actual common ground, objectively speaking. Subjectively, it appears so because of the reduction in communication and the narrowing of focus onto the polarising tooic. The perception of a lack of common ground on other topics then feeds the polarisation by allowing us to believe (often incorrectly) that the 'other side' are so different from us that we can safely ignore them and treat them as not being credible at all.

Someone was talking about tribalism in video games and I was curious to learn more about tribalism and found this video. You're a great teacher here, it would have been awesome to have a lecturers that drew scenarios (I learn best with images). Thank you for sharing this

This is exactly what is happening. Thank you you've put this perfectly

This is awesome. As usual

Great Lesson thanks for sharing more relevant now than ever !

Absolutely love how you've approached tribalism through the use of a physical sketchbook to better explain visually (and that you've approached how tribalism isn't just "that bad thing that happens in our brain(s) to vilify our fellow men", but just another evolutionary thing that we as a species have to connect to each other with both pros and cons). Makes me wonder if the next topic you can cover based on social science/psychology/neuroscience would be the study of heuristics and how the human brain provides perspective/worldviews, as that can connect to how tribalism can form in our minds and how heuristics/perspective-thinking can also carry its pros/cons. EDIT: And just saw that you do cover some heuristics in more videos on your channel (performed my own system one mistake before checking up on if there were other videos). 😅😅😅
