Obligatory: Propaganda operates as licensing more than brainwashing
Such a good article, such bleak conclusions for westerners
I think Roderic makes a lot of good points and observations, but this thesis of his has shifted my perspective the most. Even though it is focused on the mechanism of propaganda, it elucidates a LOT of the western mindset and the failures of the western left. Really challenging but really eye-opening and sobering.
