Shamelessness is a great quality.

Pride and shame are interlinked. When you defend a flawed position, it’s pride and sunk cost that make it hard to let go — escaping the shame of admitting you had wrong (even if you were only partially wrong).
Swallowing your own pride — it’s how we forgive others & let go of grudges, but it’s also how we iterate quicker… being able to let go of bad ideas is just as important as discovering and interconnecting profound ideas.
Being shameless is a pretty good quality. It’s also a shield against feeling canceled — if you don’t care about their shaming, it’ll influence you less. The more you relish their praise (which distracts you from the hunt for the truth), the more their cancel culture will sting.
Let your curiosity and desire for truth outweigh all of this shame, pride, and dissonance. Let it be your escape.
