Re: USA Africa Dialogue Series - Today's Quote

Then you just confirmed what they think of you, Ọ̀gá Chidi. 

"Truth" has often been the terroristic instrument par excellence. Many lives have been destroyed in its name. 

I think you should care about those offended by your deliverance of the "truth". And apologize to them as the year ends. Life is often larger, and matters more, than truth.

Ọ̀gá Chidi,

You assume you're telling the "Truth" and hence you do not need to apologize to those you have offended. Could you possibly be wrong about what you considered the truth? And even if you're the gatekeeper of the truth, shouldn't decency inform how the truth is purveyed (after all, the bitterest of tablets comes coated forproper swallowing😁)

Those you think you offended might even be having a good laugh at your expense for epistemic brashness.

I know that I offended some people this year(2021). I hope to offend more people next year(2022). The truth is bitter, but must be told.
