I like how this gives evidence to some kind of latin-germanic divide of the south-western Europe, or what we usually just call Western Europe. Apologies in advance for superficial labeling.
I apologise, because while I hold it accurate, hence I use it, the labeling is superficial. "He's this, he's that" is not something you enjoy throwing around.
You either think there's nothing to apologise for, in which case you're just criticizing my manner of conversation, or you think the labeling is inaccurate or demeaning, in which case you fail to demonstrate how. In either case, brevity and directness of your criticism don't mix well.
I think that you think it’s accurate but demeaning. I value the truth more than feelings. If you value feelings more lie. Lie unhesitatingly. Lie with no apologies. Lie with vehemence. Lie and work to destroy the lives of those who love the truth.
If you value truth more work to expose the truth.
But whatever you do don’t apologise. If you’re going to try to destroy people’s life’s work own it. If you’re going to try and bury an opinion because it has bad consequences without regard for whether it’s true or not own it, know it. Those who follow you may believe they’re burying a lie but you should know you’re doing your best to bury something you believe to be true.
But don’t piss on the people whose lives and beliefs you work to erase by apologising. Show them the respect of working to destroy what they believe in openly.
