That’s why we need Hanlon’s razor as an important remedy. Failing to prioritize stupidity over malice causes things like paranoia. Always assuming malice puts you at the center of everyone else’s world. This is an incredibly self-centered and impractical approach to life. In reality, for every act of malice, there is almost certainly far more ignorance, stupidity, and laziness at work.
Speaking personally, laziness knows no bounds.
