illusory truth

You repeat a lie until it sounds like truth.

The illusory truth effect shows that repeated statements are judged as more likely to be true than non-repeated statements, even when the information contradicts existing knowledge.

The original claim suggests repeated falsehoods are universally more credible than accurate facts, which misrepresents the effect as a total displacement of, rather than a bias against, knowledge.

Your brain prefers easy familiarity over difficult truth.
