Legal & Ethics Disclaimer

Read Carefully. Truth Is Not a Warranty.

Purpose of This Page

Docere Sententia exists to examine controversial, complex, and often uncomfortable issues involving public health, culture, media, and institutional power.

This disclaimer exists for one reason:
clarity — not caution, not retreat, not silence.

If you are looking for reassurance, endorsement, or simplified conclusions, this site may not be for you.


Editorial Independence

All content published on Docere Sententia reflects:

  • Independent research

  • Clearly stated opinion where opinion is expressed

No article is sponsored, commissioned, or influenced by:

  • Sports leagues

  • Media corporations

  • Charitable organizations

  • Political entities

We answer to evidence and readers, not institutions.

Unless explicitly stated otherwise:

  • Articles represent the opinions and interpretations of the author

  • Readers are encouraged to review original sources and form independent conclusions

Disagreement is expected. Debate is welcome. Misrepresentation is not.


Medical & Health Information Disclaimer

Content discussing health-related topics — including but not limited to Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy (CTE), brain injury, mental health, and neurological conditions — is provided for informational and educational purposes only.

Docere Sententia:

  • Does not provide medical advice

  • Does not diagnose conditions

  • Does not replace consultation with qualified medical professionals

Readers should never delay, ignore, or alter medical treatment based solely on content published on this site.

  • Organizations

  • Leagues

  • Media outlets

  • Charitable foundations

All references are made in the context of:

  • Publicly available information

  • Documented reporting

  • Historical records

  • Academic or journalistic sources

Docere Sententia does not claim to know private medical diagnoses unless such information has been publicly disclosed by the individual or confirmed by reputable sources.

Criticism of institutions is not an allegation of criminal wrongdoing unless explicitly stated and supported by evidence.


No Defamation Intended

Docere Sententia does not publish content with the intent to defame, harm, or misrepresent individuals or organizations.

If errors are identified:

  • Corrections will be made transparently

  • Context will be updated where appropriate

  • Legitimate concerns may be addressed through editorial review

Truth is not defamatory. Accuracy is non-negotiable.

  • Accountability — We correct mistakes publicly

  • Transparency — Opinion is labeled, evidence is cited where possible

  • Respect for Impacted Individuals — We center harm without exploitation

  • You are responsible for how you interpret and apply the information presented

  • You understand the difference between analysis, opinion, and fact

  • You accept that exposure to challenging ideas is intentional

Docere Sententia does not exist to confirm beliefs — it exists to test them.

Docere Sententia:

  • Does not control external content

  • Does not endorse third-party views unless explicitly stated

  • Is not responsible for changes, inaccuracies, or policies on external sites

We allow reader comments to encourage debate and discussion.

However, Docere Sententia reserves the right to remove comments that:

  • Contain harassment or threats

  • Promote hate or violence

  • Spread demonstrably false information

  • Are posted solely for disruption or spam

Censorship protects power. Moderation protects discourse.


No Guarantees

Information on this site is provided “as is.”

Docere Sententia makes no warranties regarding:

  • Completeness

  • Accuracy at all times

  • Future developments in research or policy

Truth evolves. We evolve with it.

But boldness does not mean recklessness.
It means precision, documentation, and courage.

We publish what others avoid —
and we stand behind our right to do so.
