Malice is not designed to get to the truth. Quite the opposite: Malice is designed to harm without regard to the truth. ~Mark Fitzgibbons
“Malice” = desire to inflict injury, harm, or suffering on another, either because of a hostile impulse or out of deep-seated meanness: the malice and spite of a lifelong enemy.
Mystery of Iniquity 
Great quote. And so many people who should know better, including me, feel this terrible temptation to disguise their malice as truth, and unleash it on the world in the name of much-vaunted honesty. the premise is that anyone who disagrees with me deserves to get hurt. This is bollocks, as we say here in the UK.
It is bollocks. Love that word.
