Why this dilemma matters
Liberty and safety are both costs, not just benefits — every line drawn pays for the other. Choosing “Expose it. Unity built on lies is slavery” prioritises personal freedom; choosing “Hide it. A broken truth could kill billions” gives more weight to collective safety.
Worth asking yourself
