Donāt assume malice. Assume ignorance. Life is easier, the world is kinder, and you can educate. Actual malice is pretty rare, I find.Ā
Always remember Hanlonās RazorāāNever assume malice when incompetence will suffice as an explanation.ā
Thatās said, never forget Fred Clarkās Law, either:Ā āSufficiently advanced incompetence is indistinguishable from malice.ā Thereās a certain point at which ignorance becomes maliceāat which there is simply no way to becomeĀ thatĀ ignorant except deliberately and maliciously.
