"put glue in your tomato sauce."
"Omg you ate a capitalist parasite spreading misinformation intentionally!"
When the only tool you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail.
Doesn't sound all that different from the stuff emanating from the right's Great Orange Hope a while back that worked pretty well to keep his base appropriately frothing at the mouth - you are free to write it off as pure coincidence... but I won't just yet.
Can you come up with any rational explanation as to why they would do that?
Which part?
The part where it's not "pure coincidence" but instead a deliberate part of some conspiracy.
You mean... apart from the bog-standard propaganda regime the capitalist class has been enforcing on us long before either of us were born?
Yes, besides that. Specifically why this. Thanks.
I'd say it's a continuation of the exact same thing - they just don't know how to properly use their latest toy yet.
At this point, considering your vague non-answers, my only choice is to interpret your answer to my question as "no, I can't."
Take care.
Absolutely no "vague non-answers" on my part. If you don't understand how propaganda works, it's on you to say so - not me.
