The problem is that what many people will pass off as "truth" really isn't. It's just their own biased opinions. Brute honesty then becomes an opportunity to sprout these "truths" without shame, even if you're a bigoted supremaicst, male chauvanist, nationalistic xenophobe or whatever. How helpful is it then?
