Or, there was new knowledge that it didn't matter what they thought they believed.
Knowledge generated about the behavior of crowds, or ordinary thoughtless people, that allowed experts to determine that it paid off to tell a lie in such-and-such a way, rather than tell the truth, even if —
even if people learn it's a lie. Or "learn it is a lie."
To me, that's the worst news.
It is as if, having been told that there are only positions, and no more truth, people have taken away the message that it's okay to believe bullshit that they kind of know isn't so, but so what, the other side does it . . .
