I suppose you meant to say "speak your experience or story". It's high time we stopped this "your, my or their truth". The truth is objective and will always be so and not amenable to feelings or opinions. Urban dictionary defines "my truth has a non-negotiable personal opinion".

Interestingly, the people causing the C-19 MmRNA jab deaths and democide will also very easily claim all they did even though they are slaughtering humanity was them speaking their truth that the stupid jab was just fine. Can we blame them especially if they, families and circle of friends have been fine since taking the jab, after all they are only speaking their truth.
In response to Stepping22, the phrase 'your truth' may not have been the best in my quip. Essentially I agree with your point, but just as you rapped my knuckles I should point out something to yourself. Always try to look at the bigger picture, and the context specifically. Midwestern Doc was calling attention to the idea that we have to start or keep throwing shit against the wall, whether that seems to be working or not. Because shit, in the real world does make things grow. Today's seeds in the minds of the normies who took the shots, may grow later into political change.
Most people, essentially 90% or more make decisions based on emotions. The more patient and analytically minded folk justify their actions with rationalizations. We see this with doctors, the more educated or intelligent, the more they figuratively stand on their head to justify wrong decisions. The quest to only be rational, and that everybody be rational for ever more is just not going to happen unless we all become cyborgs ruled by AI. Humans, almost all of us have a need for religion, to believe in things. For the atheists who deny a creator, they believe in the state perhaps or rationalism like Ayn Rand etc. What I'm getting to, is to try to also avoid the plague of 'purity spiralling'. Humans are flawed, and we can be very simple at times, but we get there. At this point in time, we at least know that Mr. Swab is evil, we can accomplish things now that he has declared war on us. No need to attack each other before the main 'objective'.
Yes, I gather the "I have my truth, you have yours" is often a PoMo deconstruction move to ignore objectivity.
I think this whole thing is about critical thinking, and not being naïve about the fallout from mega corporations and power games. It's about how advertising became propaganda and coercion. It's about how will democracy work at a planetary level, rather than this broken "stakeholder capitalism" which looks like global fascism. It's about how the environmental movement made up of people who wanted clean air and water, became co-opted as a greenwash for everyone's manipulative agendas.
I would add it's about humans building systems which are too complex for us to understand, and they become pathological. It's a kind of complexity evil, where the sum becomes evil even whilst all the parts seem well meaning.
“...seem well meaning”? To some, perhaps. And one might ask “Well meaning for whom?” No doubt every chosen action seems well meaning at the time for the one performing the action. But well meaning for anyone else? In the case of a sociopathic actor only for a few. I've become quite convinced that the global top dogs are evil beyond my former worst imaginings, and consider the general public vermin to be subdued by whatever means without mercy. These unfathomably evil oligarchs know that should enough of the masses wise up to how they've suffered at their hands, their days of ease would be numbered, as recent events in Sri Lanka have shown.
No disrespect or offence meant...
