    It doesn’t make you a poor judge of character to be lied to. Lying is easy. I hope for your sake you can continue to sit in the place of privilege, and not be deceived by someone you care about. That is an ignorance I wish on everyone.

      Oh no! It is impossible to tell if someone’s lying because it’s impossible to assess someone’s honesty because it’s impossible to emphasise with people!

      That is an ignorance I wish on everyone.

      Why would you be so cruel. In a healthy developmental process, you get lied to by your parents about the location of your nose so that you learn to not be too trusting. No, they didn’t actually steal it and yes, they did have tells.

              That was a very artfully crafted conversation ender. May you forgive your past self for being as bad of a character judge as she was to move on in a constructive manner. I.e. don’t become self-opinionated on her behalf that’d be silly.
