The truth is that demagogues may deceit the masses but they cannot deceit everyone(esp. individuals and intellectuals). But this is my personal idea of this picture and of course the artist's own idea should also be considered. On the other hand one of the purposes of art is to demonstrate such things: expressing different (and sometimes contradictory ideas) in just one picture or a fine piece of music.
