I am making a much more narrow point than you're interpreting it. The Twitter thread is claiming people who "take responsibility" are somehow superior to those who don't. I am saying I see no evidence to believe that. Talk is cheap.
My personal belief is that I would like to see discussion of the system that gets us to the point of mass layoffs. As rich as Zuck or Musk or whoever is, they are still close to gears in the system than orchestrators, so we should probably have a discussion about if this situation is something we could modify the system to prevent, and if we want to modify the system in that way.
- Aperocky 4y ago> somehow superior to those who don't. Yes. Accepting responsibility is more preferable to not accepting it and blaming it on other people/things, period.
- sausagefeet 4y agoThe disagreement hinges on what it means to "accept responsibility". Anybody can write the words.
- Aperocky 4y agoThe first step to accept responsibility is to acknowledge it.
- sausagefeet 4y agoAnd you can also acknowledge it and then continue doing whatever you're doing.
