Potential downsides of understanding people’s motivations to do “bad” things (however you define “bad”):
Are you saying you can learn about “low motives”, not repress that knowledge, and still come out relatively unsuspicious?

I think so! you can learn to "assume the best." in the best case you can kind of subconsciously decide whether it's a high-risk or low-risk situation and slot in the narrative that best suits the situation for your conscious mind.

How is “assuming the best” different from repressing knowledge or make-believe?
