#Lying
Lying is a villainous vice, and an ancient writer depicts it as most shameful when he says that to lie is to manifest contempt of God together with fear of man. It is not possible to represent more fully the horror, the vileness, the outrageousness of it. For what can be conceived more villainous than to be cowardly with respect to men, and audacious with respect to God?
[C’est un vilain vice, que le mentir ; & qu’un ancien peint bien honteusement, quand il dit, que c’est donner tesmoignage de mespriser Dieu, & quand & quand de craindre les hommes. Il n’est pas possible d’en representer plus richement l’horreur, la vilité & le desreiglement: Car que peut on imaginer plus vilain, que d’estre couart à l’endroit des hommes, & brave à l’endroit de Dieu?]

A quotation from Marcus Aurelius
A candor affected is a dagger concealed.

Trump’s 108-minute meltdown: stared down by Epstein survivors, repeatedly heckled for his racism, and boycotted by half of Democrats

The #xenophobia. The scaremongering. The #lying. The name-calling. The pettiness. But worst was his ongoing mission to destroy faith in the electoral process. “Cheating is rampant.” The Dems “want to cheat. They have cheated.” It’s the “only way they can get elected.” Heavy sigh.
Poor speech! Terrible lying! Better go home! Uncle Donald!

#Trump did his usual rote #lying about the #economy — pity the fact-checkers who tried to keep up even in the first 10 minutes or so of the speech — along with some of his other greatest hits, including the many #wars he stopped [🙄] & the magic of #tariffs. (He referred to the “unfortunate involvement” of #SCOTUS on the tariff issue, as if the justices barged into his office like interlopers.)
There seems a boundless supply of liars available for government disservice.
It would be wise, out of an abundance of caution, for the good of the country, to make Lying to the Public illegal.

“Truthful hyperbole’ is a contradiction in terms. It’s a way of saying, ‘It’s a lie, but who cares?’.”

Everyone Is a Liar (And That Doesn’t Mean What You Think It Means)
For a long time, I thought the idea that “everyone is a liar” was lazy, cynical, and frankly kind of dumb. It sounded like something people said when they were hurt, jaded, or trying to excuse their own dishonesty. It felt like an overgeneralization, a blunt instrument used to flatten human complexity into a single bitter conclusion. Surely not everyone lies. Surely there are people who tell the truth, who value honesty, who try to live without deception. I believed that. I wanted to […]
The first sign of corrupt morals is the banishing of truth.

Having recently read it aloud at a charity event, I have finally just published to my website my 2012 essay "Lie to Me", written at the time for my friend Juli, inviting honesty, which it suggests is more about trust, immediacy and fearlessness than it is about truth. I figured somehow that Valentine's week was a good time to get it out into the world.
There is an accompanying audio reading by me. It is about 5 minutes long.

Is there an Oscar or a Nobel Prize or a FIFA award (tee hee & snigger 🤭 ) for lying?
