I hate that "Why would they die for a lie"? Simple. Why did credulous Germans follow Hitler? Because he sold them a utopia. Worked really well for them for a while, not so much for the 50,000,000 million people worldwide and 6 million Jews who died because he successfully marketed his twisted crap.
Be weary even with TV ads that sell you a quick solution or a utopia. The same crap that allows religion to work, is the same shit that makes "magic" work. The same thing all cons work. If it sounds too good to be true. If you want to believe it badly enough you will, and that is when you will find your wallet/brain missing.
They never consider that the other option. They buyers were conned because they didn't know better. Or the writers simply didn't understand the nature of reality and were simply competing for power without realizing that was really what they were doing.
It is a unfortunate mundane reality for humans to create superstitous reasons for their good fortune, so even when they merely write something that has a popular meme and get lucky, they confuse that success with being right.
