Intention Matters

The difference between misinformation and disinformation is intent.
The difference between murder and manslaughter is intent.
The difference between capitalization and exploitation is intent.
The difference between a misogynist pig and a virtuous Christian is intent.
The difference between a ring and an engagement ring is intent.
The difference between preference and racism is intent.

The outcome may be the same, but the process, thinking, and feeling are oh, so different.

Intention is difficult to discern, but it’s always worth the effort.
