Why being a truthteller is dangerous

Truthtellers are incredibly important in this world, but it can be very dangerous for several reasons...

1) Isolated Target ⚠️

By being the only individual to step forward and say what others are too blind or afraid to see, you are drawing attention to yourself.

This attention does two things. First, it gives truth a larger platform, which is the primary aim for a truthteller. But secondly, it isolates you and puts a target on your back.

2) Systemic Attack ⚠️⚠️

The systems (visible and invisible) that govern our world only work if the majority remain asleep.

Waking up and helping others to do the same is an active attack on these systems and, naturally, those very systems will fight back.

3) Human Fragility ⚠️⚠️⚠️

Most people's lives are woven together by a string of illusions.

Once you utter a word of truth, you initiate the slow but steady dismantling of the only lives they've ever known.

Instead of reconsidering their lives and changing from the inside out, many people would externalise this and take radical action to defend the illusion that brings them comfort.
