We raise our children to treat people the way they want to be treated and to share their toys with others.
That doesn't happen as adults though. Everyone has their own things and we need to be skeptical of certain people.
I don't force my children to share with others and our main rule is to not hurt your family.
"Certain people" huh? Interesting.
People with nefarious intent.
Ah I wonder what indicators you use when you first meet people to immediately judge if they are worthy or not. What subtle deep in your mind factors decide if someone deserves it.
ITT A bunch of you think you're dunking on a dog-whistle blowing racist
I guess no one here has ever met someone whom they gave the benefit of the doubt that ended up being the wrong read.
When did they say they judge them at face value? You know it's possible for people to be skeptical after talking with them for a few minutes and assessing them based on who they are?
If you're well-attuned to social interaction you can sniff out con men within minutes, they give off the same weird vibes that religious nutter butters do when trying to convert you, or MLM/Pyramid scammers when trying to recruit you.
Thank you.
It's interesting how my detractors are making the definition of skepticism = "immediately judge someone."
