Yep, that’s exactly what the poster sounded like. lol Anytime Lemmy reads about something they don’t like, they like to call it propaganda. It’s crazy.
Most of your posts have a theme and motive. I find it hard to believe that you disagree with everything you post, so you are basically trying to convince others of your own views.
By definition, you are a propagandist and a particularly stupid one at times.
Oh? And what are those? I never said I disagree with everything I post. I never said I agree with everything I post. I do post things that I find interesting though.
you are a propagandist and a particularly stupid one at times.
Actually I’m a socialist. I didn’t vote for Harris OR Trump. Nice that you resorted to insults, even tho I’ve said nothing about you or your opinions.
It’s not propaganda just because you don’t like it.
If you don’t like what I post, feel free to block me and/or block this community. Or hey, feel free to start your own community and post whatever you want to.
Again, you missed the definition of propaganda completely. I don’t agree or disagree with the post and haven’t even read it, TBH. Your posts have a fairly strong bias so it’s not hard to determine what the articles are going to be like.
I should also point out that you said you are just sharing articles you find interesting and then knock Lemmy on diversity of opinion. So, it seems your point is that your article posts are a reflection of your own opinions. Totally cool.
You just need to realize that this is the dictionary definition of propaganda, especially when it’s political in nature. (Maintaining a news community without bias is exceedingly difficult, btw.)
If you can agree that your political posts are made with the intent of sharing your opinion and influencing others opinion, then you must also agree most of your political content is also propaganda. It doesn’t matter if the article was “wildly shared”. That is actually irrelevant.
I should also point out that you said you are just sharing articles you find interesting and then knock Lemmy on diversity of opinion.
Actually I don’t knock lemmy on diversity of opinion. I actually celebrate it and agree with Lemmy. Many people have tried to silence me on Lemmy just because of the article I post. So the only reason I am here is because of diversity of opinion.

They are not. I share what I find interesting. I have no sway or interest to influence anyone or anything. It’s up to individuals to read, or ignore, or whatever. I also don’t just post political articles.
And besides, trust me, as much a people dislike me, there would be no influence to be had anyway! lol Thanks!
Ooh new propaganda sub
“Every fact I don’t like is propaganda”

Thanks, friend! :)
I didn’t write the article—it’s widely published across major news sites. I shared it here because I thought it was interesting.
Calling it ‘propaganda’ just for sharing it is like accusing someone of spreading propaganda for bringing up a news story at work.
Sharing doesn’t equal creating it, publishing it, or having a political goal by discussing it.
But hey, you don’t agree with the article, so it MUST be “propaganda,” right?!
Feel free to block me and/or this community if you don’t like what I post. Or better yet, post your own articles or create your own community.
Lemmy thrives on celebrating diversity of opinion. Thanks! :)
