You know I wrote before about modal realism and the idea about lie and truth depends on your location. For ex, when I say that sky is red at a day and blue at morning/evening, it is true on Mars and false on Earth. So any idea is somehow true - if there are infinite number of worlds. The only question is where is your location.But, there is another kind of lie, geography-independent. When you hear it, you can conclude it is a lie without any external source. And no, I'm not talking about logical inconsistency. And, of course, it is the most common lie in a politics.
This lie appears when somebody don't want something, very disgusted by something. And, it is happens. What will he do? It seems very hard psychologicaly to adopt the truth. So this person thing: "it is not how it seems. I'd better believe it is other way". And he gets it, and usually he is not alone. But what happens next?
He then understand sunconsciously that this is shit. And this feeling don't let him go with it. So he need an external approval for his beliefs. And it is never enough. Also, not everybody will agree with him. And some guys tell him the truth. And - remember - it is hard to know the truth - so he will fight with them with nail and tooth just to protect fragile belief.
So, when you finally see this person, he will always say about great enemies, idiots and morons. He won't look like a peace person, and he will be heard as a seeking approval. "So, you agree that these idiots don't like our great..." - you know what I mean.
P.S. And probably this "enemies" are good guys. That's how you can know the truth without external links!
