LLMs are specifically trained to reject all fringe beliefs and use authorative sources. Post-training usually covers this and a system prompt the rest of issues. If hypotheticallt a LLM discovered that there is contradiction and an alternative viewpoint is more likely, it will still use the guidelines from post-training and system prompt, to deliver the "official party line": it can be anything from "current year cultural values are inviolable axioms" to "CCP doctrine is the ultimate truth", with LLM hallucinating any filler to get into logical gaps.
