If your method fails a 1000 times, it's likely to be on you, instead of 1000 separate individuals.
It's not irrelevant, for your claim of money and democracy being a lie is mute, as soon as you understand that there is no intrinsic truth to either claim to begin with.
Try me. Ask questions.

I can only repeat what I already said, in hope of you at least trying to understand it.
You are committing yourself to a category error.
Saying that money is a lie and saying that 2+2=5 is a lie are two completely different claims. Only one of them can be evaluated as false.

Again, this has nothing to do with truth.

Ye, I see, you are not open to consider different viewpoints.

Rights are human concepts. There are no intrinsic rights to humans. If a society agrees upon rights, man has rights.

Money is not a lie assumed to be true, neither is democracy. There is no absolute or objective truth about money. It's a human concept. It's a category error to call it a lie to begin with.
Your illustration is based upon aphorism and deepity.

To tell you, that you aren't honestly engaging with your interlocutor yourself.

You say something about starting with honesty, while having no problem to poison the well repeatedly.

Why is the purpose of man to create value? How do you know the purpose of man? How do you know there is purpose to begin with?
