Any sufficiently advanced incompetence is indistinguishable from malice.

  When two parties cannot effectively communicate, that’s true. Most of the time when a real conversation can be had these issues quickly dissolve, but having a conversation like that in a political environment or large corporate environment can be super tough to make happen. It’s sad we struggle to find common ground with others and resort to war and second guessing our “competition”.

  I love everything about this sentence. It also feels very relevant to current events.

    > It also feels very relevant to current events. What events are you referring to? Having a heart-to-heart honest communication isn't going to solve shit if the parties are greedy as fuck, or out-and-out Nazis.

      > What events are you referring to? A lot of events, all over, but mostly politically and with offenders on both sides. Neither is interested in even trying to understand the underlying emotions and reasons for the actions of the other. They're both so bad at understanding each other that at this point all they see is malice. > the parties are greedy as fuck, or out-and-out Nazis. Case in point.
