There’s a curious kind of cluelessness where people decide acting out of a sense of personal integrity without regard to actual integrity of people around you is principled behavior. It’s the flip side of “look what you made me do”

“I don’t personally steal so if I leave the safe unlocked knowing there are thieves in the building, I’m still acting with integrity” = “I’m a thief but not a murderer, so if I create means and opportunity for murderous people through inaction, I’m still at most a thief”

Exhibit “who’s counting anymore?” (esp look at the cute 5 year old kid trotting out the “flu kills more people” talking point). In the age of information war, this is like African warlords handing AK-47s to child soldiers. That kid’s life is over, now that he’s been weaponized.https://twitter.com/Jared_Carrabis/status/1305521504365535232 …
