Nope, it's still just you being wrong.

It may switch back and forth depending on institutionalization/incarceration.

One might try to counter my argument by saying that we can personally define emotions as being our rational value judgments since the word emotion is just a label that we can simply apply to our rational value judgments, but there is a huge difference between definitions and reality. There is a label version of emotions which is just the word emotions and then there is the reality version of emotions which are the actual emotions just as how there is the label version of value judgments versus the reality version of value judgments. That all goes back to what I said earlier in regards to intelligence. You could have real knowledge of truth or you could just slap a label on it and call it intelligence when it never was. I think it is reality that our biochemical emotions are the real emotions and that they are the real value judgments to our lives.
I will give another example here. In that food and reward study, our positive emotions being wanting and liking is a reality and not just a label being put upon them. To conclude this description, if you were to ask as many people as you can in this world if they think that their positive emotions are a form of wanting and liking, then I bet most of them would say "no." This shows that people are having a false idea of their positive emotions. They think that they are not any form of wanting and liking which also means they think that they are not any real good value judgment either. This leads me to conclude that they are also having a false idea about their rational value judgments as well. They think that they are a real form of wanting and liking and they think they are real value judgments when they never were. In short, I think humanity has it all backwards. They would tell me that I have it backwards. But I don't think this is the case.
