Well, I’m from that culture, and honestly I think we don’t *have* to be harmful. We just have to leave the people who disagree alone, so if you’re right about what the good life is, you can still have it.

But I think you are missing the point. Taleb specificially singles out lack of skin in the game as being a predictor of bad IYI thinking. Too many people making too many decisions about places and people very "far away" from them.

Cops policing cities they don't live in. Teachers teaching in communities they don't live in. Leaders making decisions about which the fallout will not effect their lives. All this leads to a culture of IYI bad decision making.
