Nice connection. It’s easy to armchair quarterback the world when you’ve got no skin in the game. There’s a seductive power in being a critic. Especially one free of consequences. It can be empowering to be flexing their mental muscle by tearing others down. Is it an indicator of a person that is seeking power? I’m tending to think so. The bigger the critic the less self-confidence the critic owns. I think of Donald Trump. Word has it he’s got some very big “I can make you happy this time, Daddy” issues that haunt him daily. I’ve gotta think that if we could have gotten him some very good counseling starting in 2016 the world would be a much healthier place today. This also reminds me of Nassim Nicholas Taleb’s “Skin in the Game - Hidden Asymmetries in Daily Life”. I read it several years ago, but I’m thinking of reading it again. Seems very timely.
