We are already at the 1984 double speak level "untruth" fuck outta here with that.
And I thought "alternative facts" was cringe.
And that was only the beginning.
There is a semantic difference between “untruth” (or “falsity”), and “lie”. Lies are intentional, so untruths are the bigger category. Obviously, in the case of Trump, most of the untrue things he says are intentional, but I’m sure a lot are also just garden variety ignorance.
Yeah, but we already have "falsehoods" for that, why make up a word? Because untruths is more of a soft pedal.
That sounds plausible. “Untruth” sounds gentler.
Now only 50% less truthy.
9 out of 10 polygraphs recommend.
I'll have one untruthened politician please. No lemon.
I wonder how much he just says things, and if they happen to be true, wonderful.
yeah totally. I'd even go so far as to say that a lot of the things he says are intentionally ambiguous, so that he can't be pinned down on the truth of any claim and his supporters can do mental gymnastics when he's wrong.
Yeah, this is seriously double-plus ungood.
