I may believe something the government says, or at least be willing to verify and accept it, but that doesn't mean I trust their conclusion or motivation.
The whole narrative about government being the adda of crooks is right because they pretend to be right with everything they do. But in fact, we should only oppose the actions of government.
(And yeah, in terms of current events, they've clearly made some truthful statements about Samurai. It's possible that all the factually verifiable statements are true. It's their conclusion and the actions that spring from them that's where the dishonestly lies.)
