Believe in truth. To abandon facts is to abandon freedom. If nothing is true, then no one can criticize power, because there is no basis upon which to do so. If nothing is true, then all is spectacle. The biggest wallet pays for the most blinding lights.
From 20 lessons from the 20th century by Timothy Snyder
Remember this, when the facts seem impossible to find the the haystack of confusion. Do not despair. Do not give up. Giving up is letting the falsehoods take effect.
