I can't remember the song title, but in it, Dr. Youssou N'dour said something like: if you open your door to entertain nothing but the truth, don't be afraid of loneliness, and do brace yourself for unpopularity, because only a few will come knocking.
Today, truth is so bastardised to mean anything that best suits tastes, desires and expectations. It doesn't have to be a genuine depiction or a statement of reality. Forget about integrity; just say what people want to hear, what makes them comfortable, and validate what they choose to display and you're truthful.
So convenient!
Nauzubillah!
