One of the great frustrations in these debates, is the tendency to criticize a messenger who sees a cynical system. Instead of blaming the system for being cynical. Sometimes the most Optimistic people are shut out of debates, because they won't assume the system is optimized for a noncynical purpose. My suspicion is that this ostracization is what grows the cynicism out of control.
- matheusmoreira 5y agoYeah. When people notice that something is suspicious, they become complainers. And the complainer is always wrong.
- hansonkd13 5y agoI think it stems from complaining is lazy. Its much more difficult to see why things are they way they are or see the virtue in things even if they have flaws. Its not that complaining has no place, its just that most complaining is is the lowest common denominator and doesn’t contribute much.
