Wirecard hired actors to fool auditors

When generalizing it is taken for granted that one discusses the general case not an extreme case. It is not possible to hold a discussion in general terms with people who insist on nitpicking. All generalisations are invalid. Some are more invalid than others.

When engaging in discussion it's taken for granted that you agree with your own opinion.

It's useful to have additional conversational tools to engage positively, such as:

'oh yes, that is an improvement on what I said', or

'I appreciate what you said but I was trying to make a different point, which is:', or

'That's a useful way of capturing what I was trying to say', or even

'Yes, I see that what I said was not quite right, thank you'.
