Summary
For a community to succeed, its members must face unpleasant realities and talk about them honestly. Why? A community whose members don’t trust one another can’t succeed.
Missing Connection
The argument says that for a community to succeed its members must trust each other, then concludes that for a community to succeed its members must, therefore, face unpleasant realities and speak about them honestly. We can infer the argument’s conclusion if we assume that for a community’s members to trust each other, they must be willing to face unpleasant realities and speak about them honestly.
