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?
My hometown is quite prominent in the nation’s history for things like labor movements and women’s rights. Also I grew up on a lot of older counterculture, so a lot of the people I looked up to were giving me the tools to see beyond what the media was (and still is) telling us.
