They are not lying. They believe it because it confirms what they want to believe.

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...
