@suzianne saidAre you of the opinion, that only opinions matter? If we hold contradictory views as true at the same time, is that calling that out wrong? I think as bad maybe even worse in my opinion, saying the truth doesn't matter when confronting someone who holds opposing views as true at the same time.
Oh, please!
@kellyjay saidThere is truth, and then there is falsity masquerading as truth. So many have been fooled, and there are even more to come.

@vivify saidTruth not opinions is the subject.
"Truth is now a right-wing concept"
Which is why right-wingers are the ones banning books and blocking schools from teaching about America's racist history? Which is why right-wingers deny the well-backed science of evolution? Which is why right-wingers deny climate change?
Okay kiddo.
@suzianne saidAgreed, there are a lot of things masquerading as truth, feelings for example taking the place of reality. If something is portrayed as true, yet on its face isn't, we are no longer connected to reality. Holding contradictory views as true at the same time shows we have lost reality, when something can be said and it doesn't matter if it is true or not the assertion has to be accepted either way, we have left reality.

@kellyjay saidI don't care what the "right" or the "left" thinks the truth is, truth isn't a matter of political persuasion it is what it is. When the spin starts I typically tune out, as soon as someone starts by telling me the one they are talking about is left or right, I stop caring because I'm only hearing right or left spin.

Stephen Colbert:
Reality has a well known liberal bias
@kellyjay saidTell us again how the talking snake was really literally true. And that the earth and the sun and all the galaxies are about 6000 years old, give or take a few decades.

@moonbus saidYou know how old everything is, by what means did you come to your knowledge?
