Overhearing a conversation the other day where one person says something that reflects the political culture of our day, and the response he gets from the other person is, "Ain't that the truth!" If said with enough persuasiveness, we can convince ourselves what is being said is the truth. In a divisive world, truth has been reduced to tribal alignment regardless if what is being proposed is accurate. As long as the information I get aligns with the tribe I associate with, I will take it as correct.
