Maleducated

Having been deliberately and with malice of forethought indoctrinated with blatantly and demonstrably incorrect propaganda. Maleducation is most often associated with universities and colleges but can also be engaged in by corporations, political parties, media groups, and even peer groups.

Maleducation differs from miseducation in that there is ample evidence that material being taught as "fact" is not true and should be obvious whereas miseducation implies that the actual facts were not known or reasonably knowable when the information was being taught.
