To me it almost seems like reddit has started pushing it.
You're viewing a single thread.
How do you tell the difference between Russian propaganda and right wing American propaganda?
They're the same picture.
What?
I was making a joke using the meme from The Office where corporate asks what the difference between two pictures is. I was using your comment as a setup to insinuate that right wing propaganda is the same as Russian propaganda.
Ok, but that makes no sense.
Makes pretty good sense to me. They're using the meme format to imply that there are no differences between the two, i.e. right wing propaganda is just Russian propaganda.
Ok, but they're too different, mutually exclusive countries.
Yes, that is what makes it a joke, the subversion of expectations.
Ok...
Can you answer my question now?
It is such an extreme dysfunctional problem. The right would hate immigrants, sexual/reproductive freedom without Russian interference. If some disinformation is sourced from Russia, GOP fully supporting it is a GOP blamed act. Equivalent to them paying cheaper Russian bot farms for GOP purposes.
The complete acceptance of Russophobia propaganda around here, and the economic damage from supporting a losing war on Russia, was a factor in losing a close election, though GOP vote rigging and voter suppression, and an Israel first DNC that supports Trump, was a bigger factor. The economic damage of a losing war based on propaganda disinformation, meant that Biden could not criticize the war as defense for inflation policies.
War on Russia will never make you happy. For all I know, midterms democrat strategy will be based on resuming war on Russia. The demonization of peace because "peace means Putin wins", and so peace means being a servant of Putin, is both so simplistic but so effective in causing deranged views.
Yeah, as far as I can tell, American Democrats have just created there own version of secular Christianity, where there's just ontologically a single source of all evil on Earth and that's Putin. It basically means that domestic fascism is basically given a free parse, and leaves liberals trying to prevent the slide into fascism with ultranationalism, xenophobia, militancy and McCarthiest paranoia, which doesn't work for obvious reasons.
Yes if Putin is responsible for all problems, then the only solution to everything is to be angrier at Russia.
Yeah, that's what I mean. Currently the democrats don't seem very interested in actually taking action at all to address their situation, but if they actually tried to do something, how could it not just be McCarthiest purges of "Russian assets", government censorship of "Russian propaganda" and belligerent militarism. Essentially it seems like the Democrats have rendered themselves ideologically incapable of meaningfully opposing the fascist slide.
Russia also does left wing propaganda. Their goal is chaos and division.
Ok? What doers that have to do with my question?
Their goal is chaos and division.
How did you determine this?
