[QUOTE="Dove, post: 534726, member: 535"] So because it was simplified in a meme and Blazor posted it to make his point that mainstream media is used as a tool to influence the public you assume he has never read any books about it or that he couldnt possibly understand it? You know the fact that pretty much every dem/prog bias person immediately shuts down any sort of communication that questions or challenges their views and makes the conclusion that the challange is ignorant, uninformed, stupid or nuts in itself is a sign of being propagandized. It shows a level of emotional investment that isnt normal and that sabotages and wrecks any possible civil discourse. An ad hom is a well known fallacy and when that's literally the only "debate" tactic being used by those on team blue, when you've taken the position that anyone who criticizes your stance and views is doing so because something is wrong with them(dumb, racist, a putin apologist, et) and shut down the criticism....that's no different from cult indoctrination and it really becomes a strong argument that Operation Mockingbird is something that has been successfully weaponized against Americans. We get it. People who are invested in viewing themselves as intelligent and educated really have too much pride to consider or admit theyve fallen for propaganda or have been duped. It's a painful and humbling thing. So it's easier to insult and belittle opposition. It's sad though. And there is absolutely no benefit in doing so. It might make you feel better in the moment but to others it just looks smug and hateful and foolish. [/QUOTE]
