We live in a world where we punish for incorrectly jumping to conclusions.
But we don't punish for not stating correct conclusions when things happen.
Which seems to be a fault in the way things work.
People who go with cowardice, of lets not talk to soon, or don't speculate, or just tow official lines rule. It's why we had Weapons of Mass Destruction. It's why Science has the replication issues. It's not a small thing.
- mola 7y agoSpeculation is good, when done by people with proper knowledge and information. Anyone can be correct in hindsight, just by pure 50% chance. If we start punishing ANYONE with a speculation regarding ANY situation, we'll end up both punishing everyone, and be swamped with uninformed noise. we do punish informed and knowledgeable people when they don't speak up, this is usually the basis for negligence law suits.
