Lol hurr hurr im 14 and can accept that both sides bad, only murica bad...

Im not American, and i can name easily a dozen horrible things that the US government has done, whats funny is i can actually name less horrible things that the soviet union did because i know less about it. So is that american propaganda not doing its job or soviet propoganda doing its job really well (of course the had no progoganada only a lib would believe that)

I was i had seen which community this was posted in before i commented, i thought id blocked all the cringe middleschooler chat rooms.

Then why bother commenting if you’re just gonna be immature? You think geopolitics is as simple as “both sides bad?”

Propaganda can mean any information, it can be a good thing if it teaches you the truth… my favorite example is with Vaccines, you can describe trying to convince people that vaccines are medically good for you as “pro vaccine propaganda” and you’d be correct. I think there should be propaganda based around certain things, politically, medically, etc.

Propaganda is just information that is trying to get you to believe something or think a certain way. It’s bad if it’s a lie, but it can be useful like for vaccines or for example teaching people that the working class deserves more and has been awarded more in the past. That is propaganda, and you should be using it on people around you because it’s true, and the more people that know the truth the better the world is. Is that easy enough to understand?

Your historical analysis is very American coded and that’s coming from me in the heartlands, buddy. & that is not a compliment.

Wow!... Your original comment was so hostile and insulting out of nowhere and your asking me why im being immature? Take a look in a mirror sometime.

But youre right ill stop, if you cant even recognize that what point is there in talking to you?

You could try harder. Makes no difference to me which one of us looks stupid, you don’t even seem like you believe in what you’re claiming.
