    Without going into as much depth; I think that we are now actually aligning since we’re back on track. However, with the exception that propaganda comes in many channels and forms, just as any effective marketing campaign breaks down the segmented targets and most effective ways of delivery. But I feel like you’d agree, it’s just a response to what you said about the comparison of gangs to Nazis. Same shit; different methods of influence for different groups of society.

    You are again unnecessarily bringing in information about the Ukraine War that I simply don’t care about in this thread of comments, BUT mostly starting to use it as an example utilisation of propagating, and that’s why I thought it was an example everyone would be familiar with.

    Historically, we see propaganda active most during war and times of turmoil or human/societal competition. It’s either divide and conquer, or recruit to conquer. The present and future will see the same and I maintain your initial responses is an example of its taint—not big, but there. Else, why would this discourse be where it’s at now? Especially where, in the end and as I said, we seem to actually be aligned. There aren’t differences to put aside, just something in the back of the mind that jumps to assumption…for some reason.

    And you may well be right about influence on me, though I’d like to maintain that at no point have I actually raised opinion or a stance on anything, except propaganda…I think. If not, did my best as that’s all I was thinking :)
