So you’re telling me that my single puny brain is susceptible to influence and manipulation techniques which have been actively used and perfected for centuries?
Well my good sir, I don’t believe you
Well, the problem is that we see so many other people fall for propaganda we recognize as ridiculous.
Yeah, it’s always easier to see the big picture when you’re not part of the said picture
I see what you’re trying to do here and I won’t fall for your Mongolian propaganda techniques!
God damn Mongoriens! Always trying to break my shitty wall!
Everything I believe is correct though, so if I see something that agrees with what I already believe, it can’t possibly be propaganda.
You just fell for that ‘truth’ propaganda didn’t you? 😜
Propaganda is what British people do when they want a better look at something.
“Propaganda doesn’t work on me, I vote third party!”
-Actual quote from a coworker.
You are correct, disembodied head of Garfield the Cat. Please tell me how to think and how I should feel.
I didn’t believe this, but then i saw this being posted again and again, and now i’m starting to think it might actually be true

It’s just what they want you to believe. They don’t want you to be successful.
It’s simple really. Propaganda you consume: cringe soyjak Propaganda I consume: based Chad
I’d like to disagree, but you have convinced me!
What if this is propaganda? Checkmate atheists.
I think the best way to detect propaganda is when some “fact” flatters your ego.
I believe this is an important message for everyone on lemmy to keep in mind, from lurkers up to the devs and admins,
For every type of propaganda that you recognize, there are a dozen others you don’t. There’s propaganda designed for people who think they’re too smart to fall for propaganda. Too much money and power is at stake to leave any loose ends.
I’m inoculated more for certain types for sure - but it’s based on what I’ve been around already. I do think certain types of people - analytical types are slightly better at spotting it & avoiding & the types that just love to learn & to change their minds based on scientific evidence. To me that’s all we can hope for.
If your idea of truth though comes from a god or spirit then you are just stumbling in the dark.

For science journalism sure? Maybe some shit with pharma. But in general not really unless you mean like education which may or may not be counted depending on definition.
What I can say is that Bill Nye and Kent Hovind are entirely different forms if they are both propaganda. Also one of them is infinitely more harmful than the other and it ain’t the man with the catchy theme song.

I now want to watch Garfield cartoons for some reason…
How do you feel about lasagna?
