Man I don't know what to tell you. I'm not new, I've been reading years of this community--since something like 2014 or 2015...whenever all the GG stuff hit reddit on KIA prime. I'm not saying this because I'm behind on the reading.

I simply disagree, strongly, with your analysis of intent. I doubt very much Imp has the social grace to be in any way any part of a "psyop." I watched him devolve over years, and nothing he ever did or said implied to me he was a part of anything grander than a single sick, sad person. This is clear from his nigh-total lack of engagement on the forums he's moderated. Tiny king of lonelytown; Friends: 1 (sometimes).

Anyways, not actually relevant here. "Falsus in uno, falsus in omnibus" is only useful in limited circumstances to say that when caught in a lie, it can be safely assumed that nothing else the person says can be relied upon.

When the subject is saying true things, for instance, "Men get the short end of the stick in family court," that is a demonstrably, obviously true thing to say. Calling "Falsus in omnibus" when that's the context is just silly. And that's the kind of true thing that OP was clearly referring to. You want to "broken clock is right twice a day" this, that's the kind of aphorism I'm there for. "Falsus etc." no.
