Those are big topics, but they’re outside what this piece is about. If you’d like to engage with the article itself, such as the difference between owning harm and explaining it away, I’m happy to talk about that.

Ahh, your article conflates religion and men dressed as wolves so the religion can discount something they are saying by saying the person is evil or a wolf. You don't discuss the topic but slander the person. Machiavelli had a great many wise words to say, one could argue he was a wolf.

You’re right that ‘wolf’ can be misused to wave away an argument, and that would be a bad habit. But the article isn’t about whether someone’s ideas are true. It’s about how much to trust a person with your wellbeing, which is a different question. Machiavelli is a good example: his observations can be sharp, and you’d still be wise to be careful about trusting him. And the article doesn’t name anyone. It describes patterns.
