Truth Rules

 

Let's agree to be protective
over all matters subjective

We got that precious First Amendment
ensuring free speech after all

Even those with whom we disagree with
for views we may even find repugnant

In fact especially those whose opinions

may reside on the fringe minority

deserve the right to be heard

The free and open exchange of ideas

makes us all stronger

when all is said and done

But let's not add disinformation into the mix
especially when the lies are deliberate

Those who mislead with fabricated facts

and flood social media with contrived bullshit

only serve to muddy the waters

of intelligent contemplative discourse

These spinners of fraud have no business

being included in any discussions

Let's all agree

to let their toxic lies rot on the vine
