I have several times heard, usually in a smug voice, “my truth.” I’ve also read it over and over, “my truth.” In arguments you hear “my truth” when the other side has been challenged with some irrefutable statistic. Let’s say the conservative quotes some FBI statistic to the effect that whites are shot at greater rate than blacks. The response might be, “Well, my truth is that blacks are targeted by whites.” Actually, it wouldn’t matter if for, let’s say, a year, no blacks were shot be whites at all. Well, “my truth” is there are historic wrongs meaning it’s okay for blacks to target whites.

It’s a subtle description, “my truth.” Tossed out as if personal experience somehow supercedes the objective truth. It should be corrected whenever spoken.

This CRT, SJW, BLM and whatever other bullshit promoted seems to rely on a fantasy land of lies, feelings and personal/cultural shortcomings. We need to fight it on every level including this stupid attempt to give relevance based on “my truth.”

Didn’t Gropy Joe tell us that he chose “truth” over facts?

In my family it’s every life experience I’ve had that runs counter to ‘progressive’ thought is my mythology. It’s an easy, quick way to dismiss reality by saying it never happened. It’s just your fantasy, but it really never happened the way you say because my ‘progressive’ belief knows with certainty that those types if things never happened.
