It is worth asking yourself why you are focused on this particular taboo truth. Why the Emperor’s clothes in particular? Why not the Pope’s supposed relationship with god? Why not the Cobbler’s guild’s propaganda on the safety hazards of unauthorized shoe repair? Is it possible you are just latching on to the first “Big Lie” you have encountered since you read a bunch about the virtue of truth?
Where? I’ve had a post draft about it forever, but figured it would just knee-jerk downvoted as non-compliant with the prevailing attitudes of epistemic rationality as a search for truth.
I’ve talked loudly about lots of taboo truths...
