“Grownups never understand anything by themselves, and it is tiresome for children to be always and forever explaining things to them”
- Antoine de Saint-Exupery, The Little Prince
Your point could be made, probably even stronger than it is currently, by omitting the insult at the start.
I don't think they meant the "truth" truth but people saying what they really think and being open about their motivations.
Sounds horrible.
Deception is bad enough, knowing people’s true motivations and opinions surely would be worse.
What truly motivates other people is largely a mystery, and what motivates oneself is wildly mysterious to that oneself indeed.
The only people who don't think truth matters are those who would profit from lies.
Insults are not part of the community guidelines
Being childlike is a blessing and a compliment in my book.
moralistic relativism creates cover for egocentrism to destroy us
Yes but unfortunately that doesn't make it false.

Ah nuts, I’m not trying to project anything at all. Sincerely.
