unbibiumI used to think that veracity played no part in an idea's propagation. A false idea can spread as far as a true idea; if they conflict, whichever one is stickier will gain the most ground.
Except, a truth can be independently discovered many times, whereas a lie must be either repeated, or reinvented. So the truth has an advantage, after all.
