“A lie told often enough becomes the truth”
— Vladimir Lenin
Simplified Meaning:
When people hear something over and over, they might start believing it's true, even if it's not. Imagine someone constantly saying a certain brand of breakfast cereal is the healthiest. After hearing it many times—on TV, in ads, from friends—people might start to think it’s true, without checking the facts. This idea can happen in many areas of life like news, politics, or personal reputations. For instance, if a rumor about someone being a thief spreads and gets repeated a lot, others might believe it, even if the person is innocent. To avoid falling for this, it's important to question things you hear a lot and look for evidence before accepting something as true. Teaching ourselves to think critically and not just go along with repeated messages helps us see the real truth. This way, we make better decisions based on facts, not just what we keep hearing.
