Social dominators acknowledge their prejudice but do not care
Evidence
But high SDOs do not typically have religious reasons for “low balling” their answers to the Ethnocentrism scale, nor to pump up their dislike of homosexuals. Nor do they seem highly self-righteous. So they do know to a certain extent that they are more prejudiced than most. They just do not care, apparently. — John T. Jost and Jim Sidanius, Political Psychology, 995
Categorization
- DEEPTHINKING: A sharp asymmetry: authoritarians are hypocritical-but-blind, dominators are candid-but-indifferent. The ‘they just do not care’ contrast between self-blindness and self-aware indifference is a clean, portable distinction worth sitting with.
