We all know that misinformation and propaganda are flooding the media, and some might even say that everything is propaganda. But most of us trust some sources more than others.

This community is especially concerned with countering propaganda, so I’m curious to hear how you personally decide whether something is propaganda or not.

    Propaganda is just speech with intent to persuade. Everything political is propaganda in some fashion.

    The answer to this is always to vet your sources and, more so today, to look for obvious signs of AI involvement in whatever media you are consuming. Anything AI should be treated with additional scrutiny.
