* Step 3 is probably a bad idea, if any attention is being paid to "the individual people/entity affected".
* Step 4b is a bad idea; it has too great a possibility of re-raising the issue.
* Steps 5, 6, and 7 are completely optional and probably not recommended. If Step 4a worked, keep in mind that the strategy you have got you where you are.
* Given the above, Step 2 is a waste of time.

- nicoburns 6y agoStep 6 and 7 are absolutely crucial. People not accepting blame (even privately to themselves) and never changing is even worse than people aggressively and publicly demanding apologies for wrongdoing.
- fairity 6y agoCrucial to who? GP is outlining a roadmap in the best interest of the accused.
- nicoburns 6y agoCrucial to society. It's in the best interest of the accused that other people implement steps 6 and 7. And so realistically they ought to be implementing them too. My point is that we shouldn't just be looking out for our interests. We should be working co-operatively to look out for everybody's interests. Ultimately this benefits ourselves too, but that's not why we should do it.
- fairity 6y agoI think the current system is broken. We should be trying to align our incentives. Urging people to act against their own self-interests is self-defeating.
- nicoburns 6y agoI don't really see how 6. Set a roadmap to rehabilitation/mitigation. and 7. Actually follow #6 are against anyone's self-interest. It's about holding yourself accountable for you actions.
