Like not just " i have misguided opinions" or "im stretching the truth" kind of lies, but the straight up lie where they KNOW they are lying and where they tell you "the square you are seeing is a triangle" kind of lie. I've seen some times over the years before where they lie so blatantly like this but this Yasuke discourse takes the cake with how much they are lying right now.

On the extreme left, their speech is performative. They don't see things as lies or truth.
They have a collective thought policing behavior. It's not whether something is true or not, it's more like 'will this help the group if I say it.' and if they think the answer is no, they'll never say it, even if they think it, and they'll condemn anyone who says it.
I didagree, from what I saw they knew they were lying, they just believed "the ends justified the means".
When the ends also ended up being a oile of dog turds someone lying to others starts lying to themselves.
