In many industries and fields, speaking the truth isn't well-received because lies align with the beliefs of the masses and serve the interests of those in power.
Priceless virtues like integrity and truth are not cherished in society anymore. People now place more attention on money and materialism. Most people no longer care if your wealth is from lies and other immoral behavior. In some organizations, you might face problems if you are truthful. There are times you will be forced to twist facts because your coworkers might see telling the truth as a betrayal.
A police officer in my country was sacked because she was brave enough to expose some illegal activities going on in the force. Another staff in an oil company was killed because he exposed how the company was stealing from the country. Since society celebrates money more than morals, politicians are having a free day because only few people can challenge them.
But we have to keep embracing and promoting truthfulness, regardless of what it will cost us.
