That’s not true. There are certainly cases in which some leftists intentionally lie, but that’s true of any group.
Take, as an example, the Hunter Biden laptop story. Certainly some political operatives on the left - high ranking officials in the CIA or FBI - lied, saying the laptop was a Russian plant. Then the MSM trumpets that everywhere. They are not lying. They believe it because it confirms what they want to believe.
It’s the same way this board runs wild everytime a study has a line in it that can be twisted to imply that vaccines are dangerous. The posters that do that aren’t lying; they are just a little delusional. So it is with the media.

Often, they do know they are lying, but they can't tell the truth because it is not palatable to most people. Most liberals won't say, "I'm a communist" or "I'm for open borders", or "I want to give all black people $500k". So they support the policies that lead in that direction.
Case in point: today, you have no problems finding liberals who will say that a person can be a man or a woman based on preference. Ten years ago, you would ha e been called a conspiracy theorist if you said that was going to be a litmus test for liberals...
