There is a point to 'bad' propaganda. It is additionally humiliating to have to recite it. It is rubbing your nose in it, it is a demoralisation technique.
Old lesson from the ussr. The point isn't to trick. The point is to get you to repeat what you know is a lie.
I'd argue that the humiliating thing is watching half the country eat it up with 100% credulity. We're stuck with these people.
I'm not reciting it. I'll go unemployed, friendless, or dead first.
They're not credulous, they want to believe what they want to believe.
Like people here, frankly. Loads of people here were hyperventilating after they persuaded themselves that Macron did not actually take the vaccine, or that nearly all ancient Egyptians were actually Greek and therefore white.
Good for you, you're (apparently) better than some (or maybe even most? Tough to say since 'loads' is a weasel word.) of the people here. Hooray. We stupid plebs don't deserve your presence. Feel better now?
We're talking about state-sponsored propaganda and you want to whine about some individuals in a small anonymous message board that believe something that doesn't even ultimately matter and could probably never be verified anyway.
This is why I so rarely go back to re-read threads for replies.
What a strange response.
Not at all. Only that it's good to not do bad things that one complains about. You said that people are propagandized. To a certain extent. Most of the crazy stuff they believe is because it fits their prejudices, and anyone can be guilty of that.
The Hamites are Mediterranean, approximately as "white" as Greeks, Syrians, and Semites. The ruling class was Macedonian-Greek for quite a while, though.
Correct, particularly that last part (there is a good deal of variance in the Mediterranean). But people didn't like to hear that.
