It was a near immediate campaign to convince people not to believe their lying eyes and ears. I think deep down, the spin doctors know that they're lying though.
Oh, is it time for that Sartre quote again?
It's not that deep. They want power and will lie cheat and steal the entire country to achieve it.
Conspiracy people swing from "I only believe my own eyes and ears" to "I don't believe even what I see". Essentially the only reality is the construct in their minds and it will be defended at all costs to protect their ego.
