opportunities to arrive at new truths that should be
acknowledged and accepted.
One can not insist that the old truth is the real
Truth. Only facts and reality should be established.
The moment we try to prove that the old truth is
real and discard the new truth, it becomes demagogy.
Here is an example: Before Copernicus, it had been
thought the Earth was a flat slab. To be honest, had I
lived at that time, I would have thought the same.
However, Copernicus proved that the Earth was round and
it rotated around the Sun – that was the real Truth.
Copernicus’ follower Giordano Bruno confirmed this,
but the Inquisition was not satisfied by the real Truth
which did not comply with their dogma or what it
considered to be true, so they burnt Giordano at the
stake, thus doing a gross historic injustice.
Dialectical realism as super analysis of
dialectics itself is inseparable from the dialectics that
establishes the Truth.
The diagram of dialectical realism shows the cover
around dialectics that does not allow its misuse.
