if you'd like to talk some more about whether publishing truthful information is ill-advised, I don't mind waiting till you're done with the strawman.

nazis exist, are among us, in both society at large and in the fediverse, and they are trying to manipulate us into doing their bidding. I take that's undisputed. now, I can see why some short-term thinking might conclude it's advantageous to pretend this is not the case. I don't think it's good in the mid- or long terms. not only because it's dishonest, and if people are promised something we're unable to deliver, they will be further harmed when it hits them by surprise, but also because, when we give in to their manipulation and allow them to get us to do the injustice they demand, we become their instruments of injustice, i.e., we turn into that which we're trying to keep out.
