This doesn't sound like him at all. Have you spoken to him?

I've listened to him like everyone else. He does not deny this attitude. If believing this benefited the people, he'd call it true.

Yes, but with a different definition of 'true.' The disagreement is over terminology not epistemology. Unless I'm missing something...
