This has been very useful to me since I encountered it on the old sub. Within the last years, war has broken out. War seeds the clouds of formerly clear skies. The droplets of propaganda are now a torrent.

As such, I don't think it completely wise to follow this rule unaltered when states clash. The power, organization, and incentives come together to cloudy any former clarity. Lies, with a multitude of motivations, float freely.

What addendums would you add to this adage in an age of active conflict?

    Tara Reade is that skeleton.

    Reade's allegation happened, per Reade herself, in 1993, two years after Thomas' confirmation. Which tends to suggest she isn't the only one.
