50 Lies that Almost All Americans Believe

Here are 50 lies that Americans have been conditioned or brainwashed to believe, and almost all of them do in 2022, apparently because they no longer know how to use the higher brain functions required to think for themselves. (Even if people are aware of some of these lies, they are afraid to say so in public.) There are many more lies than these, but writing them down gets me too depressed and angry, so I stopped at 50.
