Yep, LLM. So sad. You can tell by the inability to follow context.

Some post-processing can fix that, but I guess this bot wrangler wasn't informed

So don't? I don't.

So either you are an LLM, have poor reading comprehension, or are just actively being stupid.

Never in my statement was nuance a part of the definition. I specifically stated that the difference between propaganda and a convincing argument is the ulterior use of symbolism to manipulate the victim's outcomes.

The nuance portion was purely stating that such mental children cannot grasp the difference between propaganda and a convincing argument.

I look forward to seeing how you actively misunderstand this post too, what a fun game!

Fuck off shill, all propaganda is manipulation and manipulation is unethical

I block every strawmanning asshat, you aren't allowed to put words in my mouth anymore

The salt that makes it propaganda and not just a convincing argument is the ulterior use of symbolism to unconsciously condition the victim

But I understand why children like you miss that nuance

Did you not see the part where I actually commented myself?

No, it's not worth it unless you are very lucky, attractive, or rich

I'm sorry the world is so scary you have to segment parts of it away from your daily life, I don't have that weakness

Nearly everything has a political facet because politics is at the core of how humanity can even live in this modern way.

Not talking about politics at the dinner table is how we got here and I will not sit by idly while people like you perpetuate that disservice

Advertising is propaganda, propaganda should be illegal

It won't be though, because it is too powerful to control us

Sounds like the exact thing right there. Fucking disgusting risking your own citizens lives for clout and casus belli

Hey maybe you can create one of those super fundamental dependency libraries that XKCD talked about

And I think there will be a 50% chance that it will be a false flag operation to justify further atrocity

like every population they are mixed, and there have been public protests so at least there is some opposition

Mostly I think the average person is just low information and agitated with a constant background of fear and confusion, tribalistic and relying on gut feeling over rationality

There are also some ridiculously greedy and violent bandits that will kill a family for land, but they are in the minority.

Repub or Dem no American in power will censure Israel b/c the U.S. will do nothing to jeopardize our military reach there. It's a sad fact that is at the basis of all of this, and this fundamental misunderstanding cost Kamala a lot of voters

Everyone wants to pretend it's satanism or globalism or communism or whatever fucking ism is the bad guy this week but really it's just that the U.S. refuses to give up willingly the title of 'world's best warlord'

It hasn't for quite some time because the powers that be found they can distract everyone with celebrity bullshit and cats on the internet, destroying our collective memory span so they can continue to commit atrocity after atrocity while we are all too depressed and endorphin-seeking to fight back.

And in a few minutes someone will come along to tell me why I am wrong and stupid but no one will care because this is ALL buried in a pile of irrelevant, life eroding infotainment

Hey if it'll cheer you up you can make a 'stupid yank' joke at my expense, I feel I deserve it a bit. No I didn't vote for him, but apparently I also didn't convince enough other people not to vote for him so I have a part in all of this

People were right to be angry about removing voting visibility.

The surest sign a community is toxic is voting patterns and removing our access to that removes our ability to combat the continuing enshittification of lemmy.

And there are many, many mods that need to be complained about.

Though you are right that no-nuance upvote/downvote is a really shitty metric

I disagree, if political discourse can't survive public debate, then it isn't a very good political ideology.

We have been artificially hampered on other platforms by having to be nice to the nazis, we don't have to do that here and I fully welcome such debate because none of their abhorrent ideologies hold up under scrutiny

As for left leaning political debate, we have ALWAYS argued with each other. That is one of our greatest strengths that we just don't all into line with everything the top says. Also one of our greatest weaknesses.

But to stifle that artificially will just force it to bleed into other discussions.

I say up with political discourse and let the marketplace of ideas be conceptually free of bias and the results will be that humanity in general considers nazis pretty bad people

I disagree, yes being kind is very important but even more important is people engaging and upvoting comments.

Reddit was great because of what happened in the comment section, not the headliners, and I see very little voting engagement even in active posts.

Remember, it's free to do and it encourages others to engage as well. But yea be kind too
