“If the truth shall kill them, let them die.”
(Paraphrase usually attributed to Frederich Nietsche)
There is no virtue in protecting falsehood for the sake of comfort, nor honour in shielding fragile egos from reality.
A truth that must be silenced to spare the unprepared is no longer truth, but complicity.
Any mind, doctrine, power, or a regime
that cannot survive contact with what is real is not worth preserving.
Let the truth do its work.
Let it illuminate, dismantle, and, if need be, destroy.
What remains standing afterward—that alone is worthy of trust.
