Summary
This quote suggests that individuals who engage in bad faith, or act dishonestly or insincerely, often tend to talk about concepts like friendship and loyalty. They may use these terms to deceive or manipulate others, using empty rhetoric to create an illusion of trust or allegiance. By focusing on these ideals of connection and commitment, individuals in bad faith divert attention from their ulterior motives and untrustworthy behaviors. This quote reminds us to be cautious of individuals who excessively talk about friendship and loyalty, encouraging us to critically evaluate their actions and ensure they align with their words.
