  3. Look, this is politics, a very human activity subject to human tendencies such as perception being more influential than truth, simply because truth, like thinking, is hard work, inefficient, and not always comfortable to sit with. Al lot of human problem stem from these limitations. What we want isn't always the absolute truth, but just enough truth we can be comfortable with or is useful. That's why maturity is the realisation that a lot of what you've been told is true isn't, and you come to a place of compassionate scepticism. In other words, you pick your battle. Strategically and probalistically, truth is a collaborative project. It relies on consensus to be accepted as true. And consensus isn't easy to get, or keep. Nevermind the reality that those within the consensus are limited, including you...
