Should I set up a bot, we can just trade trivialities back and forth forever?

And yet you continue

You thought I’d have read it?

So I don’t think it should be on this list, and I guess you don’t disagree.

Than why’d you bring it up?

You want to summarize?

It doesn’t seem to fit with the criteria of being for political ends, so it wouldn’t be propaganda.

I have seen them, and the government is the bad guy, with the overreach of public surveillance being major topic. You’ll need to be more specific, but that would probably entail watching them.

So I think that definition is useless, since there’s nothing that isn’t propaganda.

For links that work.

I haven’t seen anything, but let me know if you find anything or make one, sounds fun.

And you’re communicating, which makes your comment propaganda. Or is it only propaganda when it’s to political ends?

Cool, I wouldn’t call that propaganda, but we can work with that.

Do the Captain America movies have an irl political goal? What would it be?

It’s describing all communication, good and bad. This conversation we’re having right now would be propaganda.

Love the cats expressions! ‘I’m happy with my position at the center of the universe.’

I might be biased, but I really like !stick@sh.itjust.works. Really fun posting about the wonderful qualities of a good stick.

(FYI, I’m the mod, if you don’t want self promotion, I can delete this. But I do think the community is great)

I think any books I’ve read you’d call propaganda, I’m not sure what you wouldn’t call propaganda.

Okay cool, so your definition of propaganda is any communication for political ends?

Let me get this right, your saying all reporting on the Holocaust is propaganda?

I’m trying to nail down what propaganda is so we can talk about it. It’s not much use taking about it if we mean different things.

I’d define propaganda as misconstruing the truth towards political ends. If it’s commercial ends rather than political, it’s false advertising. If it’s not misconstruing, then it’s advertising or public communications. Just to set a baseline.

I can’t find what your sources are defining as propaganda from a brief look, so let’s compare to my definition.
