Populism and PC (the left-liberal political correctness) practise the two complementary forms of lying which follow the classic distinction between hysteria and obsessional neurosis: an hysteric tells the truth in the guise of a lie (what it says is literally not true, but the lie expresses, in a false form, an authentic complaint), while what an obsessional neurotic claims is literally true, but it is a truth which serves a lie.
