When you start to question how things work and why things work that way, you begin to lose connection to what is considered the "normal train of thought".

Think of it this way, if the government is lying to you, then every governmental institution is also lying to you. Everything you learned in school is a lie by the government, every law made is a lie by the government, every notion you know is a lie made by the government looking to control you.
So the law is not a law you need to respect, the knowledge you were taught is not something to follow, and the people in charge are not in charge of you.
It's a breakaway from the system, independence of sort. Fight the power! gone sideways.
