I was simply noting that one person's lie is another person's "motivating speech."
I was also noting that not being 100% transparent typically gets called deception or propaganda.
Mr D singled out the younger employees but he was also careful not to say it was them and only them. Calling out everyone would be a bad move for moral. So he sliced his "facts" a bit in order to meet his ends. That's deception, and not fraud per se.
