WHOLE QUOTE is:
“Sometimes people don’t want to hear the truth because they don’t want their illusions to be destroyed.”
Interestingly, this quote appies so well to the anti-Ukrainee Freepers.
However, this quote has not been scholarly attributed to Nietzsche. NOTED: QuoteFail may have it right: “This quote appears to have been created within the Tumblr-verse.”

Nope. This 'correction' you received is from another source, which only mentions "QuoteFail." As you were not given the URL, I provide it for you.
"...both QuoteFail and Wikiquotes question the attribution."The whole article is from Stack Exchange, from which you were "corrected" with only a portion of the material.Nietzsche did write something similar, "For the historical audit brings so much to light which is false and absurd, violent and inhuman, that the condition of pious illusion falls to pieces." 1
In the same essay he wrote, "... 'he who destroys illusions in himself and others is punished by the ultimate tyrant, Nature.'"
Did Nietzsche actually say or write, "Sometimes people don't want to hear the truth because they don't want their illusions destroyed." Philosophy Stack Exchange
Amusingly, someone did not bother to either include the URL for "QuoteFail" nor check it out. It fails. Rather ironic.
"The requested URL /content/friedrich-nietzsche-sometimes-people-dont-want-hear-truth was not found on this server."Mis-attributed -- as many quotes are -- the quote's sense stands. You were "corrected" with " this quote appies [sic] so well to the anti-Ukrainee [sic] Freepers."https://quotefail.com/content/friedrich-nietzsche-sometimes-people-dont-want-hear-truth

Ironically, it applies to pro-Z and anti-Z, pro-P and anti-P alike. Nature. Reality.
"Scholarly?" Well, actually cut-and-paste, rather like other comments which so often go without citations of URLs, as if someone's own work, rather than just clipped and presented as if....
404 is a "quote fail." When writing "scholarly," it seems rather important to BE scholarly. Else "...the condition of pious illusion falls to pieces."
