GP's scenario poses that the late person asks in exasperation what they need to do to be believed -- there's no logical fallacy in telling them why perceptions are stacked against them. Or in your framing, why it's skepticism instead of presumptive trust.
Yes, the goal should be for both parties to reach a correct understanding: not at fault this time, but often is.
Facebook, to some, appears to be only loudly arguing about the specific injustices they feel, without giving up much ground on their habitual mistakes.
- harlanji 8y agoI can empathize with FB leadership, not condone of course. 5 years in SF consumer ad tech turned me into a shell of a person who was coming to accept that reality is created by certain peoples’ wills, so the only lie was deviating from the company message. “Air tight” stories and containment seemed like the M.O. and with 5 figure severance packages and more, I have a hard time seeing many people being the first to be vocal. Everyone wants that money, and most will lie hard for it. Not saying I went full shill, but memories of that time are interesting to reflect on. Surreal, disidentified. I think my soul is growing back, thankfully.
