Disagree Alex for many reasons but I'll say this and I'll let it go. Going deep here.
Society should care more about hearing the truth than being fed lies. We don’t usually think, I know this is BS, but I’ll believe it anyway. Believing something means thinking it’s true. When the truth gets buried, society ends up worse off.
Many may find it easier to believe a comforting lie because it helps them get through life or feel self important. If that’s you, maybe holding onto that belief feels better than dealing with reality. I say don’t insult yourself by falling into this mindset.
Honestly, I’m offended when someone lies to me. Just F’ing own it and move on.

Jeff: Here's a quote from German political philosopher, Hannah Arendt, that you might like:
“The result of a consistent and total substitution of lies for factual truth is not that the lie will now be accepted as truth and truth be defamed as a lie, but that the sense by which we take our bearings in the real world—and the category of truth versus falsehood is among the mental means to this end—is being destroyed.”
