Bad news. I realized that my life philosophy was flawed and exploitable and was in need of revision. I've been stressing about this for the past few weeks, and unfortunately I believe that the best way to revise it is to add another condition before I consider other people's speech to be relevant and worthy of consideration.

Previously I believed that an actor's beliefs are not worthy of consideration if they won't share them and engage with you about them. Now I have an additional requirement: they also cannot actively prevent you from determining the truth of their beliefs and statements

I'm sorry..
