One example could be in a war situation. A soldier might tell a necessary lie based on a true story to protect the location of his comrades. Say he witnessed a battle at a certain place, but when captured, he lies about the exact details to mislead the enemy.
At a workplace, an employee might tell a necessary lie based on a true story to save a colleague's job. Maybe the colleague made a small mistake, but the employee lies and says it was a miscommunication similar to what happened in another project where it was resolved without any major consequences. The basis of truth here is the existence of that past miscommunication incident.
Necessary lies based on true story can be justified in the context of maintaining relationships. Sometimes, the truth might be too harsh and cause unnecessary pain. For instance, if your friend had a really bad performance in a play but you know they worked hard. You might lie and say it was better than it was, basing it on the true fact that they did put in effort. This helps keep the friendship intact.
One example could be in a courtroom. A defendant might tell a desperate lie based on a true event. Say there was a real altercation but they exaggerate their role as a victim when in fact they were the aggressor. They use the truth of the altercation but twist it to their advantage.
In politics, a candidate might take an old statement made by their opponent out of context, which is a true statement but歪曲 (twist) it to make it seem like the opponent has extreme and dangerous views now. This is a dangerous lie based on a true story, as it misleads the voters and can have a significant impact on the outcome of an election.
One example could be when a person twists the facts of a real event to create false rumors about someone's character. For instance, if in a true story someone made a small mistake at work, but another person lies and says it was a major act of negligence to get them fired.
Some historical myths can also be seen as sacred lies based on true stories. Take the story of King Arthur. There may have been a real leader or warrior around whom the elaborate tales of the Round Table, magic swords, and chivalrous knights were built. The core of a leader and some battles might be true, but over time, it was embellished with magical and heroic elements that are not entirely factual.
Sorry, I don't have enough information to give specific examples. Since we don't know what this 'love lies bleeding' is exactly, it's impossible to point out examples of the true story behind it.
There was a case in a small town where a man was obsessed with being seen as a hero. He lied about saving a child from a burning building. In reality, he had nothing to do with the incident. His lie was based on the true story of the actual rescue that took place by the local fire department. He was so desperate for recognition that he fabricated his involvement in the event.
I think it's not. 'Necessary Roughness' seems to be a fictional creation rather than based on real events.
Yes, it is. 'A Necessary Death' is inspired by real events and has elements of truth in its narrative.
One example could be that a student is wrongly accused of cheating on an exam. The school might cover up the fact that the real cheater was someone else to avoid a scandal. Another example could be a teacher lying about their qualifications, and the school turns a blind eye because they need that teacher for some reason. Or perhaps a false rumor spreads about a school event being cancelled when in fact it was just postponed due to some administrative issues.
