If it does not, the falsehood will eventually bring down the culture from within. This is one reason that Jesus talks about suffering and persecution for his followers. He knows that the goodness which is transforming them from within will eventually put them at odds with cultural lies. You cannot preach a religion of personal transformation without expecting societal conflict as a result. Sooner or later, the lies will be exposed.
Societies react to the exposure of lies by trying to discredit, smother, or kill the exposer.
Paranoid cultural leaders know that the lies of the cultural mind must not be exposed. The sanity of the prophet must be proclaimed as insanity. The society's lies are apparent when a public issue doesn't make sense. You can tell that it doesn't make common sense by the way that people have to go to lengths to tell you why it does make sense. You can tell that responses are disproportionate, that something small seems more important than it should be.
