I don't think it's possible to tell the complete truth in a tangible medium. All writing is at least a little bit a lie. All speech is at least partially untrue and unrepresentative. Because I use an internal monologue to think, am I incapable of telling myself the whole truth?

I suspect so, although an internal monologue may be (must be?) closer to the truth than aural speech because thoughts are not forced into any strictly linear order. Thoughts are asynchronous, multidimensional things better suited for expression than tangible media.

Selective pressure but for ideas. We lie to ourselves accordingly.
