    The thing thats baffling about musk doing propaganda is it almost feels insulting. Like the right went from Goebbels who more or less wrote the book on propaganda, to Musk who just acts like a child on the internet. Like im glad they have degraded this badly since WW2 but still.

      That’s also the part I’m glad about. Not to put the Nazis on a pedestal or anything, but propaganda was something they took serious. Now it seems more like the right accidentally hits the notes their followers want to hear.

        Yeah, I agree. Still feels like I was promised a fight with a grizzly bear and instead got a black bear instead. Still dangerous regardless but well, though social media is a plague apon mankind which means the average person is also more susceptible. So while not a worthy fight per se its still an annoyingly hard one.
