“Once it is established, distrust tends to accelerate.
If you distrust the people around you because you think they have bad values or
are out to hurt you, then you are going to be slow to reach out to solve common
problems. Your problems will have a tendency to get worse, which seems to
justify and then magnify your distrust. You have entered a distrust doom loop.”—
