Dale and I had a conversation once, when that Chinese "weather balloon" was
transitioning the USA, about whether or not a lie is a lie if it is based on
bad info received from others.

We concluded that, in this instance, the person who believes it to be true
is not lying, they are merely misinformed.

At the time Trump brought up pet eating in the debate, there was footage
(shared here!) of townspeople complaining about these very things, including
a couple who claimed to have witnessed these issues.  These claims have since
either been debunked or claimed to be "uncomfirmable" by authorities.
