These things always come down to a contest between power and truth: which matters more, to the individual? Can truth turn their wrath, or only fuel it further?

These things always come down to a contest between power and truth: which matters more, to the individual? Can truth turn their wrath, or only fuel it further? Do they heed or attack seekers after truth?
Pay close attention, because truth is our only defense against runaway power.
- listenallyall 4y ago> truth is our only defense against runaway power. A lot of today's "truth" is simply what powerful people say it is. If you disagree, tough.
- moloch-hai 4y agoTruth and "truth" are, of course, opposites.
- listenallyall 4y agoYea, but neither side comes out and says they represent "truth" (in quotes).
- moloch-hai 4y agoBut we can tell.
