Who?
You observe......the fake always shows itself.

@SW-User nope, unfortunately the fake narrative is hidden in plain sight and even in our own minds

@gol979 I do believe if we step back a little, what is in plain sight shows up. What is in denial is harder, but it will show up. Just takes longer.

@SW-User still depends on context, "acceptable" discourse and personal bias
SW-User
@gol979 Well to me, my personal bias matters the most. I personally do not go around changing other peoples opinions of anyone else, so it doesn't matter. :)

@SW-User that's my point. How can you step back and observe in a neutral way and see the "fake" when you're already observing your bias? It's paradoxical
SW-User
@gol979 There are no absolute truths when emotion is involved. But to me, my truth and my instinct will be the most important. When I step back, some of what clouds me at a closer distance evaporates.
It is never going to be perfect or black and white.

@SW-User I agree. It's a complex puzzle
