A practical principle on politics (office or otherwise) by Eduardo Bellani
If you are involved in politics, as a voter or just as an office worker in an unfortunate situation, you would do well to remember this dictum:
When a public figure tells you something that you want to hear, question his sincerity. When a public figure tells you something you don’t want to hear, believe him.(Lawler 2024)
Figure 1: The destruction of the original Church of Christ the Saviour in Moscow, Russia
