There are countless times in my life where telling a white lie would have been a simple, entirely unproblematic response. I can't tell you that I didn't go that route when I was younger, as it'd be a lie. But many years ago I made the conscious decision that no knowingly false words would be spoken again. Sometimes I am worse off for the truth, and I kick myself for causing my own suffering. I dont regret making that decision at all.
Also, luckily I won't ever have to deal with those entrapment questions from my wife. I'm lucky enough to have married an absolute fox, and she's a confident woman who couldn't be bothered with those types of things. I couldn't see her any other way regardless.
Wow, nice response, you are three sheets to the wind - all in. Respect.
There is something beautiful in the purity and will of it. I personally have found this world, ever more divergent from the truth, completely insufferable to the point of hating my fellow man. How can sentient beings be so easily led, so easily boiled like frogs as the Overton window traverses previously unthinkable territory? The truth, not my truth or your truth, the objective, quantifiable truth is a priceless commodity especially in stultifying, group-think normie circles at the moment. I salute your "don't shoot till you see the whites of their eyes" commitment to it .
