But ultimately in those alienating conclusions you were _right_, how do we forget this? What does it make us to disregard uncomfortable truths?
Otherwise, they’ll mentally dismiss your arguments as coming from a different tribe without really listening— emotions and group identity are very strong psycological forces, so you need to take them into account when crafting your own actions.
Perhaps this is of little concern to you, but if you absolutely want to maximize your accomplishments, you must be sufficiently flexible so that when you do speak truth it carries weight and import.
Not being wrong.
Which is often bad, sometimes very bad, like "you're dead" bad or "you killed somebody else" bad.
Being right is just like epidemic prevention or vaccines: if they work, you don't even notice.
