So we should just let the corpo sites like IG and YT be filled with corpo friendly propaganda? This seems like one of those "don't hate the player, hate the game" situations

No. You're supposed to stop visiting them. Full stop.

Then how does your counter-propaganda reach the idiots who keep doing so?

(For the record, I don't use those sites, but I recognize that it greatly limits the audience for what I write.)

It's not my job to deprogram idiots. I don't know why you would even frame your question that way.

[–] grue@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Because the idiots affect your life, whether you like it or not.
