"嘘を大きくし、簡単にし、繰り返し言い続ければ、やがて彼らはそれを信じるようになる"

Simplified Meaning:

Sometimes, if you tell a big lie and make it easy to understand, and if you repeat it over and over, people will start to think it’s true. Imagine a kid who tells their friends they have a pet dragon. At first, no one believes them. But if the kid keeps saying it every day and talks about their "dragon" like it’s real, some friends might begin to think there actually is a dragon. In history, some leaders have used this trick to convince people of things that weren't true, by making their lies big and repeating them a lot. This shows how repeating false information can make it seem real over time. To avoid falling for such tricks, it’s important to think critically and check facts, rather than just believing something because it’s said often.
