even if it's the smallest we all do.

I cant think of anything I could say i never lied about, if its for personal gain or to help another.

Is lying a purely capitalist thinking?

is it empathy?

If we all had thoughts connected(this is our future btw), will any lie be beneficial?

Surely it depends on both context and reason for the lie to be used ...

Sometimes we lie about ourselves though ? I’m sure we’ve all done that.

You’re asked if you are ok. You automatically say yes, in your mind you’re thinking, actually I feel crap.

And I’ve lied out of compassion, when someone I loved had dementia, I would agree with all sorts. They were less distressed by that.

Sometimes for safety. To protect ourselves or our friends.
