Unfortunately, it appears that most people don't have any actual values. They just follow the whims of pleasure and utility, and base other views on whatever their dominant culture has been spoonfeeding them. Makes it rather difficult to find "minded" people at all, much less anyone like-minded.

I don't think that's true at all. You won't see their values or their character unless you know them well, but that doesn't mean they aren't there.

Does everyone at your work see you as the complex and good person you probably see yourself as? Do you think they understand you? I doubt it. So why do you think you understand them?
