If we don't talk about what we feel is ideal, we can never strive to achieve it.

Its really important to discuss idealism for that reason alone



Good luck with changing human nature, i.e. persuading managers to voluntarily act against their own self-interest. That’s just not how people work.

What you say is true in some cases, but not in all cases.


Can't even try if we don't talk about it. The issue with line of 'clear thinking' is it leaves no room for change.

If enough people take talk into action, we could reasonably see a change in behavior. It may come from sources than we don't expect, but it can happen all the same and we only have a chance at getting there if we are wiling to talk about what is ideal and raising that awareness. Its an important piece of that puzzle
