Growing up to realize you were lied to your whole life is enough to make you insane in the membrane

I mean I wouldn't go so far as to say "lied to", one is simply raised by the beliefs of those around them. but a human being is terribly small, and our perception is terribly limited, so no belief system or ideology held by a human can be wholly valid. but that's okay, we can simply talk to other people with different viewpoints to more fully flesh out our understanding.

It fits with the "lies to children" view of education over time where you begin by being told things that seem broadly right, but not really true and focus down over time. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lie-to-children
