Nope, the quote is quite limited in terms of conveying the idea.
It never says anything about verification or trust. It basically says: "never assume malice if it's possible that incompetence took place".
That's pretty naïve way to see the world, especially in this day and age.
- bawolff 5y ago> never assume malice if it's possible that incompetence took place". Reading the quote literally i disagree. There is miles of difference between "adequately explained" and "possible" > That's pretty naïve way to see the world, especially in this day and age. I would actually argue the other way is naive. Assuming that all bad things that happen in the world are because of an evil person is what happens in movies and fairly tales. The real world is almost never that black and white.
- bitcharmer 5y agoYour sentiment is quite common among people raised in comfy, western parts of the world. I now live here and am astonished by the amount of adult, supposedly life-experienced people going into full shock that always comes with comments like: "I would never expect our government to do such thing!". It's time to grow up. I bet you think billionaires are good people and real justice takes place in the courts of law. Also, rich people face the same consequences as the rest of us. No?
