Final answer:
The complete phrase from Dale Carnegie's book is 'Never criticize, condemn, or complain.' 'Vilify' means to speak about someone negatively, which is contrary to the positive interpersonal approach encouraged in Carnegie's work.
Step-by-step explanation:
The student's question is: 'Never Criticize, Condemn or ________.' The correct answer is d. Complain. This question seems to be referencing a phrase from Dale Carnegie's book 'How to Win Friends and Influence People.' The complete phrase is 'Never criticize, condemn, or complain.' These principles are meant to guide personal and professional relationships by fostering a positive environment rather than a negative one.
A term related to this concept is vilify, which means speaking or writing about someone, or something, in a way that makes them out to be wholly negative. This is the opposite of what Dale Carnegie's principle suggests. If we operate under the belief that all truth is relative, then criticisms would not be permissible because they would be based on personal perspectives rather than objective facts. Similarly, dissent would also not be permissible or supportable, as dissent generally requires a belief in an objective stance that is in opposition to another.
