“We think the human-kind code is based on facts about people. Instead, it’s based on facts about how we relate to those people at the moment we categorize them – what we want, or expect, or fear from them. Mental codes interpret human kinds as if they were things that have dimensions and persist through time. But the information that makes the codes work is not about things. It’s about actions – what we’re doing and planning to do as they relate to what other people are doing.”
