      @Decoy321 or any other mods: Might not be a bad idea to enforce tagging of political content, and then make a sticky with a quick how-to on filtering, so users can easily skip the whole category if they so choose

          To be fair, everyone’s views are shaped by propaganda of some kind, it’s quite literally unavoidable if you exist within any society. Lots of people like to think that their ideas are just the product of their own independent thinking, but that isn’t really how people work.

              Yes, but most propaganda is not specifically fascist in nature.

                You’re not wrong. I like to think I’m immune to proponganda because I’m anarchist but it’s pretty obvious that I can be fooled just as easily as anyone by the pretense of speaking truth to power

                  I mean, sure, like a year ago but at this point I also don’t trust what the government and mainstream media say.

                            Yeah, let’s just ignore the right-wing think tanks, the majority of conservative/MAGA influencers who aren’t on Russia’s payroll, and right-wing ā€œnewsā€ organizations. It’s totally just Russia and not right-wingers trying to destroy the country to grab all the power for themselves…

                            If you look into it an amazing amount of them are further funded by Russia. Not solely but enough to make them bigger than they’d be otherwise.

                                You seem to know more than me based on your response. You are claiming an amazing amount are funded by Russia, are there any decently recent sources which support your claim that you can direct me to? Do these people also take money from US-based right-wing organizations?

                                    It depends on the phase. Sometimes you get constructive interference and they add up instead.

                                      The current state American society has been in for the last 10 to 15 years is heavily a consequence of Russian info ops. Many countries run info ops. But no country has done as much damage as Russia

                                        They haven’t been on russias payroll for years.

                                        They genuinely believe the shit they swill. By and large the paid agents were 5 to 10 years ago.

                                          But are these people funded by right-wing organizations? I understand some are still active.
