I see what you're saying. But I can lie to my kid and tell him he can fly off our roof, and he might believe it and kill himself.
I could also lie to myself and say it doesn't matter what people think. And I might be 70 years old with no friends because I didn't pay attention to what people thought about me.
Or, I could lie to someone and say they're beautiful, and they might believe it. And then they might wonder why nobody likes them. That lie might be and "ignorance is bliss" type issue.
