      not as a matter of disbelief, but statements like this are good to accompany with a source.

        So the average reader has no critical thought or perspective but rather focuses on the emotion they feel on what was said. No wonder the FOX crowd is so easily swayed by angry actors presenting their case with the same few trigger words on loop.

          You say that like you’re smarter then that. Or like your apart of a group that is better than that. But you’re not. Like it’s 15 years into this shit and you’re comment sounds like you’re just realizing this. Wait until you find out they’re also aware of this and not only do they use it to their benefit, you’ll find the group your in is totally ignorant to this. You’re being astonished at a bard playing music to rally his group while you’re in a group with bards that think music is stupid.

          You’re on fucking lemmy after they convinced everybody here to leave social media. Wake up

          Look around. We are herded into the most uncreative communities meant to stifle momentum. This community is for posting only news articles from certain sites and only about a certain topic. This other community is for memes, but only memes about Y. For YZ memes we have YZ meme community. Don’t even think about posting YZ memes in Y that’s a ban. This other community is for posting about beans.

          But they’re the fucking stupid ones

          Moderated right into our pens

            Like you said it’s a community thing. There’s a spectrum of acceptable behavior inside each one. I simply choose the one with the widest band possible at the end of my political preference. I still venture out into the tankie and hard R conservative crowd on occasion to keep perspective on the bigger picture though.

            We’re not immune to propaganda but it’s easier to see the overlapping issues we all face and care about but end up being divided on how to solve it based on our personal and political leanings.
