        The paradox of promotions based on performance in a previous roll is that you end up with incompetent managers unable to move upwards anymore.

          I’m really jealous of these types of guys’ ability to lie without feeling anything. If I lied like that, I’d be embarrassed because my words sounded like bullshit. How do they do it?

              See, I don’t know! I used to think that too! But then I actually met some people like this, and a lot of them absolutely do not believe the shit they say! They’re just really good at convincing other people that they do.

                  I once knew a local “activist” who frequently weaponized leftist language in order to police or punish other people. Ie, accusing people of racism for ordering an Asian Chicken Salad at a fast food place, or for trying to learn Spanish at the community college, and she would phrase her criticisms in such a way that any complaint would make the other person seem wrong. I legitimately thought she was just mentally ill.

                  I found out later that she was trying to blackmail and defraud a local charity, and that’s when our association ended. She has been banned form some community organizing spaces because she inserts herself into every single one of them.
