About this listen
Some Problems with 'Complacency':
- It is a surface level overgeneralization: If it explains everything then it really doesn't explain anything.
- It focuses on the individual and misses the systemic influences for bad outcomes.
- It frames undesirable outcomes as an individual moral choice.
- It discounts the role and vulnerabilities of expertise.
- It is a hindsight attribution.
- It biases investigations and provides a false stopping point.
