How do you differentiate delusional vs. visionary?
A person has an idea, everyone says she’s delusional and the idea sucks, it fails, they say I told you so. But if it succeeds, they trip over themselves saying how visionary she was and the idea was brilliant.
The ends should never justify the means. But they often justify the post hoc historical judgement.
This irks me.
