Charly Boy, famously known as Area Fada1 and the founder of the OUR MUMU DON DO movement, has once again captivated his audience with a thought-provoking message on his official X handle (formerly Twitter). Using a timeless parable, Charly Boy draws attention to the state of truth and deception in today’s society.
In his metaphor, the Lie speaks to the Truth, coaxing it into a false sense of security. “Let’s take a bath together, the well water is very nice,” said the Lie. The Truth, hesitant but curious, tested the water and found it indeed pleasant. Both the Truth and the Lie undressed and entered the well for a bath.
But in a deceitful twist, the Lie suddenly leaped out of the water, snatching up the clothes of the Truth. While the Truth was still bathing, the Lie fled, disguised in the Truth’s garments. Furious and determined, the Truth climbed out of the well to retrieve what was hers, but something unexpected happened.
As the naked Truth walked through the world, she was met with anger, disgust, and contempt. Unable to bear the scorn, the Truth retreated back to the well, where she hid forever, ashamed of her nakedness. Meanwhile, the Lie, parading in the Truth’s clothes, roams freely, accepted and even celebrated by society.
Charly Boy’s parable points to a harsh reality: in today’s world, people often prefer the comfortable Lie over the raw, unvarnished Truth. Society turns its gaze from the “naked Truth,” choosing instead to embrace the Lie that wears the guise of honesty. As he put it, “the world has no desire to know the naked Truth.”
With this powerful allegory, Charly Boy challenges us to reflect on how easily we accept illusions and falsehoods when they come dressed in the familiar attire of truth. He urges society to stop turning a blind eye to the authentic Truth, no matter how uncomfortable or unsettling it may be.
In a world where deception thrives and the Truth is often buried, Charly Boy’s message resonates as a wake-up call for those willing to seek and embrace reality, even when it stands exposed.
Is the society ready to look past the well-dressed Lie and face the naked Truth? Only time will tell.
