    But liberals scored significantly _higher_ on care and fairness, and conservatives scored significantly _higher_ on the others. Going all relative on us ("Well, both were what I define as high, so they're the same!") doesn't fool any normal people.

    Did you try your deception-by-relativism here because you fail at basic reading comprehension, or was your dishonesty deliberate? If you'd like to say it was some of both, I think everyone would accept that.

    Whoever criticizes capitalism, while approving immigration, whose working class is its first victim, had better shut up. Whoever criticizes immigration, while remaining silent about capitalism, should do the same.

    To begin with a difference between 3.8 and 3.6 on harm and 3.5 and 3.2 on fairness is not a significant difference. It can easily be accounted for by saying conservatives have a more balanced approach to morality.

    We already knew that, and it paints liberals as the moral ones.

    That is, unless you think obedience to authority, tribal loyalty and a sense of sanctity are what defines morality. That would be why Haidt did not refer to the conservative position as being moral. That was how a conservative interpreted it.

    It's more that conservatives can't understand liberals, because they can't understand why liberals put more importance on moral areas.
    Bollocks. You don't comprehend English very well.
