How honest are you?

I find that most people here are dishonest. Is political honesty dependent on intelligence? Is it an emotional thing where fear of T**** or P**** makes you dishonest?

I guess I have to give an example. People pretend that nuclear war isn't possible.

Anything is possible. I doubt anyone disagrees with that

Like for instance people who claim the US invaded 93 countries since 2018 or who claim JFK was executed? That kind of dishonesty?

Based on his claims of being “solidly progressive”, apparently being progressive requires one to live in a fantasy world and redefine words to protect your ego when you lie.

And he might be right, but you'll get no argument from me on that point.
 
People can’t handle my honesty on this forum.
 
I find that people who don't trust anyone, aren't trustworthy, and people who trust everyone are trustworthy.

Per the OP - me personally - I think I'm quite honest and quite forthcoming.

I'm honest, but I don't go out of my way to give my honest opinion about a person, unless I'm asked for it. However, that depends also on whether the person is a fairly good person or just a jerk. Jerks will usually get my honest opinion of them without asking for it.

But whether someone is a 'jerk' must always be a matter of opinion.
