@ZDL@mstdn.social ... part, this is because most people have a malleable moral code.
No, that is unfair. The moral code is probably relatively stable. But the relationship most people have with the truth is very shaky.
If the truth doesn't fit your moral code, then folk tend to adjust how they interpret the truth.
Someone like Greta cannot (in the same way/to the same extent). That is what makes her so uncomfortable to so many people.
Besides, method moderation is just tone policing in a trenchcoat 😜

@jens@social.finkhaeuser.de I'm not talking morality here, however. I'm talking effectiveness. As I said, reality is a certain way. It's not good or bad. It's not "should be". It is. And if you can't work from a position of what reality **is** to begin with, you can't reach your goal. It would be like saying "there should be a bridge over the chasm here, so I'll go walk here". You just wind up falling.
