The real problem is (which the article mentions), is that a lot of the time the things people write are something that they're forced to. Another bureaucratic task report, another writing assignment for a mandatory class that they have no interest in, another marketing gibberish article pandering to investors, another puppet news piece requested by people of higher status to protect their status quo.
Being forced to lie is one of the most mentally degrading things one can be imposed on.
