"If you tell a lie big enough and tell it frequently enough, people will eventually come to believe it". What is an example of this happening today?
I would really rather that these were actual examples, and not conspiracy theories. We all have our own unsubstantiated ideas about what shadowy no-gooders are doing, but I'd rather hear about things that are actually happening.

What were they expecting 😭😭 what even is a non-political "big lie"? That the earth is round or something???
The earth isn't round, it's an oblate spheroid
;P
Spheroids are round, that's what makes them sphereoidal.
No, spheres are round, a spheroid is just mostly round.
With all round, the only thing you can do is rifle through their pockets and look for loose change.
There's the TVTropes page someone linked, which has a bunch of stuff everyone believes because they became common audio/visual shorthand in TV and movies.
I think flat-earthers would contend that that's a very political lie
