Distorting statements

Description

Distorting statements involves deliberately altering, exaggerating, or misrepresenting facts or information to influence perceptions, justify actions, or manipulate outcomes. This strategy is often used to obscure the truth, deflect criticism, or gain advantage in negotiations and conflicts. Remedies include promoting transparency, fact-checking, encouraging critical thinking, and establishing accountability mechanisms to detect and correct misinformation, thereby fostering more accurate communication and informed decision-making.
