JasonPerseus, 2 months ago to politics Never presume malevolence when incompetence will do. The chance the person doesn’t know how to play Chess is infinitely more likely than the chance they are experts at 12-D Chess. #Trump and #uspol #politics #uspolitics and #life in general

WorkWithKirk, 1 month ago @1nd33d @JasonPerseus I would go so far as to say that TFG is as malevolent as he is incompetent. And that he can be both things at the same time. Like #hanlonsrazor but two-sided.

miki, 10 months ago to random Never ascribe to malice that which is adequately explained by incompetence. Though “incompetence” can, in many cases, be replaced with “other completely benign reasons”.
