Because once you don't have truth, once you don't have exact historical basis with numbers referencing for truth, then what you lose is any semblance of truth.

Well, I'll tell you this.

Do you know why it's such an important thing to attack truth for the left?

Why?

There's a reason for it.

It's very interesting.

So we can all relate to the story.

You as a kid, you do something wrong and then your parents punish you.

You're like, why?

And then you're like, just because I said.

It's like, but dad, why?

No, because I said that's how it's going to be.

You have that experience with your parents?

I think we all have, right?

When you remove truth, then all you can respond to is authoritative power.

That's it.

That's it.

When you remove the argument of truth, and this has been a very common theme amongst communist regimes, is they remove what truth really is.

And when you remove truth, all you respond to is power.

Because if you don't know, this was a big problem in the Soviet Union, is the rules changed all the time.
