Truth is a relative concept, i.e. related to the respective point of view. It's not a valuation of essential correctness. According to the definition truth is: "The agreement of a statement with a thing about which it is made". With the term "truth" one establishes only the validity of a circumstance as it exists in itself to the status quo. Whether this truth is good or bad only plays a role on a completely different level. Example: "Peace is more reasonable than war" is just as true as saying: "The more bullets I fire, the faster someone is dead". The action is morally wrong, but the statement is valid as truth.

So it is a matter of finding the truth that is right according to the social codex. In the above example, for good people the second statement is invalid, the first is valid, but true they both are. Perhaps the corresponding value statement has a much better penetrating power. To say: "This is untrue!" does not hit it as exactly as: "That is not a valid truth!"
