I think this from the book "On Tyranny" by Timothy Snyder: Twenty Lessons from the Twentieth Century, a historian specializing in Eastern European and Russian history.
Lesson: 10 "Believe in truth. To abandon facts is to abandon freedom. If nothing is true, then no one can criticize power, because there is no basis upon which to do so. If nothing is true, then all is spectacle. The biggest wallet pays for the most blinding lights."
