Note on: Unsolicited advice is criticism. Always.

November 2025

This came across my feed:

A screenshot of a social media post with the talking about a training course where a facilitator said Unsolicited advice is criticism. Always. And some notes about how half the room gasped and objected and the other half loved it.

I posted it in a few discords which prompted some discussion. I'm writing this post as a bullet list of responses instead of spamming the channels.
