It's not that the truth wasn't available to them, it was. They've been either willfully ignorant or truth isn't what they seek.
Like look at Facebook. Half the shit posted as a question in peoples feeds could have been answered immediately had they typed the question into a search engine rather than their feed. They ask what to follow, not for the truth.
I think it's because so many people live lies themselves. If you value truth and honesty you are more likely to sense when something is a lie. If all you know are lies then you have no way to tell.
Or to put it more simply: God is truth. If God is in your heart, the truth lives within you.
This 1000%.
