Is it their tone? Mean people are more likely to be wrong?

Is it how many people agree with them?

Is it the authority figures that agree with them?

Is it the evidence/support they bring to the table?

Is it the stories they tell about the information/event/person that convince you?

Is it how confident they seem to be about their position?

Look, it's REALLY simple

You can't figure out the truth by lying to yourself, it's just incompatible

From that point, people who lie, people of bad faith, people trying to dodge the subject/derail the topic, etc... Are necessarilly not in the search for truth

It's just what it is

The moment you notice that pattern, you know

And it doesn't take forever, at somepoint it shows

It's ambiguous for the one who doesn't want to understand

You see, that's how you don't get to the bottom of truth, by doing exactly what you're doing; Pretending you don't understand what is very clear. "People whose salary depends on not understanding the problem"

I happen to value clear communication, and when I see multiple possible meanings, I won't just accept that the answer is the one I fancy.

Guess who does? (Useful idiots)
