About This Quote

While it is true that truth is hard to find and that propaganda can be very cheap, it’s not necessarily true that truth is always bad. When we know the facts about something, we should not let our emotions cloud our judgment. In politics, the facts sometimes become distorted or even suppressed to make a point or to gain an advantage. In international relations, another form of ignorance has been used by the powerful to justify their actions, whether they be genocide or war.
