Agreed. Thankfully we can trust this non-propaganda post you shared.

What exactly do you think propaganda is?

Well if you ask me, it's anything that is communicated in order to manipulate public opinion.

If you want me to quote sources with more credibility than myself and maybe later question the validity of them, we could do that of course. We could also debate why my or other definitions apply or don't apply to this post. It could be fun. I'm sure we'd have a blast and then there would be upvotes and downvotes and it would all be very exciting.

We could also, however, both have some rest, go for a walk, call a loved one and leave these dopaminergic emotional parasites we call social media alone for a while and just be happy spacing out for a bit.

What do you say? I'm a big fan of spacing out, but I'll leave it up to you.
