      I’m more making fun of people who mock them for chugging the kool aid but the change their tone once there’s a more serious discussion of westoids kool aid chugging habit.

        You can do both, i can make fun of the psychos who fell into bullshit and still acknowledge that is a shame that they fell into something that they were being programmed to do

        If propaganda doesnt do anything and people are just the way they are. Why bother doing propaganda? Why fly american warjets over thr superbowl even though it costs an insane amount of money

          Obviously propaganda does something, it would be ridiculous to argue otherwise. But propaganda is ridiculously effective on Americans, more than it really should be, so much so it feels like the propagandists have gotten kinda lazy with it because they know they don’t have to put enough effort it.

          I don’t think propaganda would work this well if the population wasn’t actively buying into it rather than just being passively exposed to it.

            The more money you spend on propaganda the more effective it is.

            Americans have unique material circumstances being benefactors of the imperial core and being completed isolated amongst other things.

            if you were born here you’d probably do the same shit a lot of these hogs are doing
