It is clear that lies have become a social norm in today's society. The pressure to fit in, the influence of social media and celebrity culture, the pursuit of success and financial status, and the role of the media all contribute to the normalization of lying. However, it is important for individuals to critically examine their own tendencies to lie and the potential consequences of their actions. As philosopher Sissela Bok states, "If we don't have reasons that are strong enough to lie, then we should tell the truth." Instead of blindly conforming to societal norms, it is crucial to cultivate an environment where honest and transparent communication is valued. Ultimately, it is up to individuals to question and challenge the social norms surrounding lying and strive towards a more truthful and authentic society.
