You must be new then, welcome :)

I'm not saying I never believe any individuals in a company intentionally do bad stuff, just that I require evidence of it being intention before I assume it to be intentional. Personally I don't think that's naive, and it is based on ~30-40 years of real world life experience, but I guess I'm ultimately happy that not everyone agrees on everything :)

Humans are great at hiding evidence of malice, and leading people to believe they're just incompetent.

Just came to say (since the person you’re responding to has a different view of the world) that I agree with you that this is both a more accurate, and easier way to live. Assuming malice as the default sounds like a recipe for being very, very unhappy.

This attitude of ignoring what is true in favour of what makes you happy is exactly how corporations made up of mostly good people can do bad things.

Thank you, it's really crazy to be see "it's sad that you want truth when ignorance makes me happy" being upvoted on this platform. I suppose it's par for the course on a VC forum..

And yet many people assume malice by default and are unhappy as a result in this day and age. It's unfortunate.
