Noun. A crime against the common standards of conversational decency, typically involving excessive underserved hubris and inspired through the reading of one or more books by Jonathon Haidt. Does not involve sex with a chicken carcass (contrary to a popular belief).
Jared committed a Haidt crime during a conversation with Ben by excessive gesticulation while holding a copy of "The Righteous Mind" and repeatedly referring to the six facets of morality. He also referred to Hume at least three times more than is considered reasonable in a half-hour period and uttered disconcerting words-sounds like "Hive-Switch."
