Don’t fall for the falsehood that people want honesty.
When push comes to shove, they want you agreeing, they don’t like being challenged.
Honesty is a mirror.
Honesty says “You said this, I say it back and then we fight.” This tends to be the rule.
I say this on the back of being accused of ‘snark’ in doing the above.
Legitimacy is a threat to many, it assumes accountability.
Never assume that being honest will make you loads of friends. And yes, I am aware of how black-pilled this sounds but I think many of us are discovering just how much we’ve been walking around on egg shells to keep friends or at least ‘buttoning our lips’ when it comes to sharing honest and reasonable points of view.
