On the phenomenon of people who challenge and setback in the past scorn those who try similar things. - learned helplessness
- Interpretation of “similarity” - Mold thinking that had a similar thing in the past - The “resemblance” is not true.
- Things have changed from the past.
- Methods change with changing circumstances.
- Solution methods become obsolete as the status quo changes.
- Critics who take no position are just not needed
- I want to affirm that I gave up and that the challenge is a “difficult task”
- sabotage because it hurts my pride when others accomplish what I have given up.
Well, there are a lot of possible attributes, but I think I’ll settle for “When I’m challenging something, critics who aren’t taking useful action on that challenge are futile.”
- It is also futile to incur the cost of trying to understand for what reason we are cynical.
