some epstein files can be unredacted...The Trump administration is so bloody stupid they just highlighted the text in black in the pdfs, leaving all the text available underneath.

I don’t see how the truth can suddenly become not-the -truth just because someone you don’t like said it.

Kind of. The source may influence if you recognize it as the truth or trust that it is the truth, or how close to the whole truth it is.

Also, the source is affecting their reputation (in some way) by providing the truth. So it matters to the source that they are the source.

So…2+2=4 is true when Albert Einstein says it but false when Adolf Hitler says it?

I’m not buying that.

Then you didn’t hear the truth.

Because it isn’t really the truth it’s just a quip

Way to move the goalpost.

I never agreed it was the truth I’m someone else

The statement stated it was the truth.

aesthelete@lemmy.world · 4 months ago

The original statement was a quip and it can go piss up a rope.
