Haidt

Moore
Diff. between the two realities are the superheroes and their effects on the world -- new reality where Watergate never happened and the US wins the Vietnam War
Mentions Alan Moore briefly close to the beginning - cites him as a way to look at and trust a group based on the knowledge that they should be working morally
Nietzsche
Specifically used in paragraph 16 to describe how western philosophy views the loss of individuality
background/argument source - background because it gives context to western society, yet argument because it helps answer the questions posed at the end of p15
Pinker
Moral dilemma example of trolley and fat man which show that irrational factors like emotions can cloud our morality

Potter
The source is an article from ABC News and it was released in 2009. The subject of the source is about an organization that doesn’t like swear words, and a lot of people don’t like them either. It was accessed by the reader in 2011, so for them, it was a pretty recent source on the topic.
The source functions as coherence and cohesion? Because they use it as an example to show that Anonymous can be predatory
I guess it also sort of functions as a disruptions since it is used to refute the claim that Anonymous is morally good?
Poulsen
Used as a background source to show how Anonymous uploaded strobing lights to an epilepsy forum. It is used to provide some negative background on what bad things that anonymous has done.
It is a news source replying to a hacking incident.

Santo
The source is a tech news website, and the article is pretty informally written, almost more like a blog post than news
From a tech website specializing in hardware. Written 12 years ago, technology has changed a lot since that time. Moods and attitudes surrounding internet etiquette have also changed and evolved.
Wright uses it as a background source to show the actions and characteristics of the group Anonymous. It is interesting that Santos states that the perpetrator is unknown and that he doubts it was done by Anonymous
