Im seeing this just after having a while conversation about conservative Christians making a big deal about 'finding truth in faith' after the Kirk shooting and this feels similar to me
There's this clear implication that the 'truth' can only be found through your ideological worldview, and a complete abandoning of any attempt at justifying or supporting it through reason. Any piece of information that's misaligned is dismissed as propaganda - but what's especially annoying is that it doesn't even have to be coherently opposed to truth but merely distracting from what's supposedly more important.
Americans are one of the most propagandized populations on the planet - but I wouldn't even put Russia in the top 5 sources of it.
;>
russia is behind most of the propaganda, and they do it to both sides too. its one of thier core strategies to distract west from russias geopolitical aspirations. i think russia has USA beat on being propagandized, usa is probably 2ND, if at most 3rd.
You know America is cooked when even liberals are coming up with grand conspiricy theories to blame all of the countries problems on sinister forigners. Any evidence that "russia is behind most of the propaganda, and they do it to both sides too"? Of course not, but it feels right, because it explains the current state of things while still maintaining American exceptionalism, so that's good enough.
Hehe .ml user being defensive
Yeah, thats got to be it. No one could genuinely be concerned to see the left wing of American politics following the right into McCarthyism and xenophobia, it must be because I have the wrong letters after my name. Nothing I said is wrong, of course, but that's nothing a lazy ad-hominem can't solve, is it.
That's Kremlin propaganda my friend.
Divide from within.
It doesn't bode well that even American Liberals are all turning into the villain from Dr. Strangelove.
