This takes a very Boolean attitude to truth.

Like if I said "the current president of the United States 's family name is Bidden" then that's as false as "Santa Clause's middle name Elvis, is in tribute to his mother's favourite singer".

But you could argue that there's measures by which one is more true than the other.

In this case, these "lies" all seem to be vaguely within shouting distance of the truth, and his repetition of the accusation seems a bit lawyerly in its specificity. In fact, a fuzzy definition of "lie" could well suggest that his statements are further from the truth than the ones he's criticizing.

It's at least somewhat odd that some lies are widely spread on Twitter and the media because they're true-in-spirit despite being false, while some truths are banned on Twitter and the media because they're false-in-spirit despite being true.

You mean they are discussing in good faith?

Err, can you go into more detail?

There's zero evidence of any Russians anywhere being involved with Hunter Biden's laptop. It's not a 'gotcha' fact check, the lies are in fact nowhere near the truth.
