13. | Twisted Truth

To protect yourself from falling victim to manipulated facts, you must change the questions you ask. When evaluating what someone is telling you, do not just ask if the statement is true.

We are wired to believe people when they provide verifiable proof. By giving you a real fact, they buy your trust to sell you a false narrative.

: Leaving out key details to naturally lead the listener to the wrong conclusion without ever speaking a false word.

: Sharing a fact but withholding the context that changes its meaning. You state the "what" but hide the "why."
