Seeing just how bad the propaganda is really makes you wonder about how much of this will be lost to time. Like will future history history books talk about how bad this propaganda was? Surely not right? So how many cases like this have we already forgotten about?

    Of course not, we don't even talk about how bad the propaganda was back in the day now. Like people were treating Trump's campaign as being 'un-civil and un-American' when, within living memory, John Kerry was swift-boated, and literally James Madison accused his opponent of all kinds of henois shit.

    American execeptionalism is a hell of a drug.
