    Propaganda is just marketing for political ideology. Most people are unprincipled homunculi and need to have these ideas sold to them.

      Yeah, no.

      Propaganda is very specifically lyit or telling half truths to mold your masses to support you. You can call it marketing, or anything else, but it’s evil and it’s what got us here in the first place. Two wrongs don’t make a right

        Taking the high road is what got us into this mess. The heart and mind is a battlefield just like the physical battlefield and cyberspace. If you forfeit one front to the enemy you unnecessarily put yourself at a disadvantage in the war.

          Uh huh, and by becoming exactly like your enemy you expect to defeat how, how? By competing?

          Do you really believe that IF this would turn people back that you’d stop? Nah, you’d go on exactly the same, be exactly the same.
