Every time I see westerns post some 
shit the usual response is “well propaganda is a hell of a drug”.
But if western propaganda is really that effective, how the fuck did we get here? I’d think if it was really this good at melting people’s brain’s it’d be effective enough to prevent communities like this from even existing. So like are we special or something?
Also raises the question, if we’re able to get over this BS, wtf is everyone else’s excuse for falling hook-line-and-sinker for it?
I will also add, because the original quote could come off smug. But, I think it boils down to there always being people that fall through the cracks of every complex operation or policy. And the more the propaganda has to stretch from reality, the more cracks and people falling through them.
