- rootlocus 5mo agoWith all due respect to the guidelines that requires assuming good faith, this sounds like the beginning of a nirvana fallacy. You don't have to provide a perfect solution to point out something is wrong. People who don't care about the people they lead don't make good leaders. I'd rather have leaders who hurt others by accident than on purpose.
