In an ever-changing, incomprehensible world the lots had reached the purpose the place they might, on the similar time, imagine all the things and nothing, assume that all the things was attainable and that nothing was true. … Mass propaganda found that its viewers was prepared always to imagine the worst, regardless of how absurd, and didn’t notably object to being deceived as a result of it held each assertion to be a lie anyhow. The totalitarian mass leaders based mostly their propaganda on the right psychological assumption that, underneath such circumstances, one may make individuals imagine probably the most implausible statements someday, and belief that if the subsequent day they got irrefutable proof of their falsehood, they might take refuge in cynicism; as a substitute of deserting the leaders who had lied to them, they might protest that that they had recognized all alongside that the assertion was a lie and would admire the leaders for his or her superior tactical cleverness. — Hannah Arendt, The Origins of Totalitarianism, 1951
