I dont think there has been a single instance in which lauda has accepted responsibility for anything.
Of course there is; this is just not a case for which I can even remotely be held responsible.
The fact remains that he was strongly pushing back against holding his business partner responsible for his involvement in his businesses scam activity and promptly disavowed him once it was shown his reputation is a lost cause, not once the underlying scam activity was made public.
Some people complain that I act quickly, and then when I don't, they complain that I don't. You can't have it both ways.
You can't have it both ways predictable snowflake.

Your statement speaks volumes about you and is another reason why you should not be in any position of power.
I have not criticized you for being too fast with your actions so using that to deflect is well nothing more than a deflection. Regardless, the fact remains that you only took action until you were unable to continue to protect his reputation and continued pushing back against calling what he did to even be wrong until his reputation was lost. This is not taking a long time to take action, it is actively protecting a scammer and keeping a business relationship based on reputation with said scammer.
