"Known things" and "common knowledge" are specific to your context of existence.
The tactic to weave in the threads of logical statements or irrefutable facts together with person's/organization's agenda is used by everyone from radical individuals to sects to popular political parties.
However, you cannot turn this argument on its head by saying that a reasonable statement shared by "bad" people makes it bad or invalid by association.
Also, did you know hitler too would agree that sky is likely blue?
