Well I'll start by saying that no one here doubts the authenticity of all red truths. We doubt that they are universal for every game and we doubt that they can be authentic without their game's context. (unless the context is that it applies to all games) No we use the red truth like Knox's rules as a crutch for thinking that is open to interpretation.

There are people who doubt that the red truth Nanjo is not a murderer is universal. Does that mean they doubt the authenticity of the red truth? No they doubt that Nanjo can't be a murderer in all games. I don't agree with that opinion, but it's a valid one to have.

We trust the white text to be able to give us a sea of hints that the red truth cannot. Because while the red truth can give you direction it is not an absolute truth of the story detector. You need to actually read the story and look past the red to get it.
