It's good to ask why, but if the answer is "because they are lying dangerously to people," you can usually just go about your life without worrying too much about it.

Then you're not in a very good position to try to figure any of this out.

Then more lies probably aren't going to improve your worldview in any appreciable way.

Maybe you should try to find the truth instead of finding stuff that supports things you already believe.

If you lack the necessary background to arrive at any half-sensible conclusions? More or less. If you don't understand a subject, trying to think critically about it isn't going to get you anywhere particularly useful (and may in fact lead to dangerous mistakes, in a context as serious as the public health we all know you're not-so-secretly talking about). Instead, you should first try to expand your knowledge of the subject so you understand it.

I think Joe McCarthy said something like that.

That sounds like something you could cite, if it's true.
