Also someone who confuses fact with opinion and then diplomatically spreads their "perverted message" to others like a virus, or a meme as Plato called it.

Get the pseudologist mug.A psychological condition, otherwise known as pathological or compulsive lying, in which the sufferer habitually lies. The lies are caused by an internal need to lie, not environmental or social factors. Unlike in psychotic or delusional disorders, people with this condition can recognize they are lying, though they may be unwilling to do it, leading to anger, confusion, and (in some cases) violence following confrontation.
