I think some of them imagine themselves to be the protagonist of the world and will be elevated to the dictator’s best friend at some point. I’m basing this off having talked to an Iranian monarchist.

I agree, but I’d take it a step further and say the ultra rich are even worse than parasites. Parasites serve a purpose to the stability of their ecosystems. Billionaires just consume.

Are they the same person?

Imagine thinking being a Biden fanboy is being antifascist at this point lmao

“God is punishing us cause of the gays!”

antisemitic terrorist supporters

Israel supporters?

Jk. I know what you mean, but I genuinely would argue that. Calling not supporting nationalism and an ethnostate antisemitic is the actual antisemitism. Oh and terrorism is only terrorism when brown people do it, so can’t argue with that part. /s

That aside… Your problem is there isn’t enough bots and propaganda on here compared to say reddit. I’d say that’s a good thing. Go back there if all you want is to circlejerk.

That’s partly what my novel is about. I’d list it, but I’ve changed my writing style to make it more accessible, and I plan to make a 2nd edition soon that hopefully my relatives can read. English isn’t their first language.

Realizing angels and God are evil is what made me come to the conclusion it’s all a lie and leave Islam.

You need to find your niche when it comes to writing. For example I write mythological science fantasy, and I can count on one hand the number of books I’ve come across that fit that specific genre. You might not be able to write as well as someone else in general, but you can write what you write about better than anyone else.

Nazism isn’t fascism is quite the take. I can’t tell if you’re a troll or just a pedant who goes about being pedantic wrong.

Fascism has happened exactly once in modern history.

Blatantly false.

Only if you’re privileged enough it happens slowly.

Terrorism and mass murder. I actually lived near one, a van attack in Toronto.

You’re being pedantic then being a pedant about being pedantic.

Look up The Art and Science of Dumpster Diving by John Hoffman.

I don’t know about it’s quality, whether the advice is any good. I just know it exists.

America has democracy??

I mean, misinformation has been a problem for as long as humans have existed. The overabundance of information and misinformation is new, but not their existence.

Legalize drugs, stop the war on drugs from Nixon era. It should be treated as a health problem, not a criminal one, and once they’re at least decriminalized the cartel’s profits would PLUMMET.

Ofc USA has probably the strongest propaganda system and has incentive for the cartels to continue existing, so I don’t see that happening unless some change that’s major and unexpected happens.

Disinformation has always been a problem, and it continues to be.

Consider that the sky is only ever one colour at a time. Let’s say it’s blue rn just for simplicity. It’s not red, orange, yellow, etc. There can be more false statements made about this subject than there can be made a true statement. There will always be more misinformation than truth.

Now, a lot of that misinformation is disqualified cause even the most propagandized person has eyes. But that doesn’t disqualify all of it.

There are questions science won’t ever have a definitive answer to, because religion makes claims on them that are unfalsifiable. Part of it is just that people need an answer to those.

I left Islam, and while I wish all muslims would do the same, it required me ro go through a series of existential crises I’d be hesitant to force on my worst enemy.

There are plenty of other factors to consider too, traditonalism, the way the human brain forms neural pathways and how it is harder to get rid of a pathway than it is to form new ones from that, nationalism or the use governments and powerful people have for religion…

The good news when it comes to propaganda though is that if those in power don’t constantly exert control over the masses, then their entire hierarchy would collapse pretty quickly.

His beliefs didn’t change exactly, but his understanding of the world did.
