In this episode, I examine the philosophy of lying, discussing its moral complexities and ethical implications. I differentiate between various types of falsehoods and their responsibilities, particularly for public figures. I explore the ethics of self-defense in verbal deceit, arguing that context matters when determining the moral weight of lying. Ultimately, I conclude that while lying is a breach of trust, it cannot be universally condemned, encouraging listeners to reflect on their own understanding of truth and deception.
