We live in the age of the lie. It's impossible to take anything at face value, because it seems like every organization we interact with is just lying to us all

We live in the age of the lie. It's impossible to take anything at face value, because it seems like every organization we interact with is just lying to us all at every opportunity.
- j_wtf_all_taken 5y agoActually, we live in the age of one group of people constantly lying, and convincing everyone else that everyone lies. Soviet-style propaganda - making everyone believe that the truth cannot be known, everything is possible and everyone lies. (I am talking about intentional, informed, strategic lies, I am not talking about people that just don't know better etc.)
- fapjacks 5y agoWhile I agree with your assertion in the general case, I think the response from other factions is that they, too, must lie in order to compete, leading to much more systemic, intentional, strategic lies.
