What should be done, if anything, about lies that cross the line and become "destructive lies"?

It all depends on the context. Can you apply a context to the question?

1930s Europe, for example... or 1960s Mississippi perhaps... or Trump's brief political dalliance.

Germany banned the Nazi party and its rhetoric after WW2.

White nationalists perpetuate the lie that some races/creeds/colors/genders are biologically inferior.... good lie or bad lie? Do those lies have a place in the K thru 12 classrooms?
