Anyone can be easily deceived into believing anything. Because we don't really understand things from personal experience. We 'know' (believe) whatever we know from external sources, studies, other people, common knowledge, or other.

And then, after believing it for so long, when someone points out that it was a deception, we can't imagine how it could be faked, or how so many 'smart' people were deceived.

Our smartness is built like a house of cards, one lie upon the other. Catch one, and everything will start falling apart. This is awakening, and it is happening.

If we can't see how it could be faked, it doesn't prove that it wasn't.

Everything we know is a delusion.
