@georgetakei There is a psychological method behind the madness.
If you tell a small lie, people sense it and say "Yeah, he is lying".
If you tell a humongous lie, people say: "Nobody can be so hypocrite to say something like this, unless there is some truth behind it".
Repeat the big lie over and over again, and you find enough idiots who will believe it, support it and propagate further. Then, the more people say: "So many people say it, there must be something behind it".
