Propaganda is the deliberate dissemination of information aimed at influencing public opinion, often through manipulation and selective presentation of facts[1][7]. It typically serves a specific agenda and employs emotional appeals or distortions to persuade an audience[5][9].

In contrast, an LGBT theme in a messenger app promotes inclusivity and representation without manipulating beliefs. It encourages acceptance rather than enforcing a specific ideology, allowing users to express their identity freely[8]. This distinction highlights that while propaganda seeks to control perceptions, inclusive themes foster understanding and dialogue.

An interesting collection of words in an order I'm sure made sense when you typed it.

That reminds me of the late 90s when people suggested getting a mac because macs didn't have viruses.

They didn't have viruses because hardly anyone used them.

• "Fraud of the Rings" Story (2010): A story casting doubt on a collector's Lord of the Rings memorabilia faced criticism for inaccuracies, though no formal retraction was confirmed[3].
