This essay explores the concept of making accusations that are difficult to refute, such as calling someone naive, overconfident, or defensive. The author argues that these types of claims are 'leveraged on being right,' meaning they are powerful when true but can be damaging and hard to counter if false. The piece suggests that to use such accusations effectively and ethically, one should ensure they are falsifiable, provide concrete evidence or patterns of poor judgment, and avoid overly broad dismissals of the other person's reasoning capacity.
