Here's my very jestful response - you never are. You speak in wordd created by other people, all who have their own agenda. You act in frameworks that are derivative of your predicessors. Even the most righteous individuals are still humans with their own intentions, no matter the narrative they are putting forth. If there is an ultimate truth, I'm doubtful it can be articulated. So the maximum that follows - be self critical, be critical of others. Think with ideas rather than about them - where does this thinking lead beyond what is immediately stated? Continually reorient and then resolidify yourself against that truth, even if local truths can lead you astray. A sort of frantic ideological oscillation that changes bias over multiple time scales.
