I wish the author had provided some references, because his claims are conflicting with what I have read from many other sources.
I am mainly thinking of a) many forms of priming are firmly established at this point, and b) Kahneman specifically called out researchers to more thoroughly vet their findings for the others.
This conflicts with this article's claims that priming is not established, and that Kahneman has doubled-down on it.
I suspect the confusion comes from the many forms of priming, some of which are established, others of which are suspect.

Not an expert, but I thought it was by now common knowledge that social priming is a field in crisis, where failure to replicate is the norm, not the exception[1,2].
