Rules:
- The mods are fallible; if you've been banned or had a post/comment removed, please appeal.
- Off-topic posts will be removed. If you don't know what "Leopards ate my Face" is, try reading this post.
- If the reason your post meets Rule 1 isn't in the source, you must add a source in the post body (not the comments) to explain this. If the reason is in the source but is tedious to find (e.g. in a lengthy video), you must add an explanation for where it is.
- Posts should use high-quality sources (for a rough idea, check out this list), and posts should retain the title (if one exists) from works like news articles, videos, etc. You may (but need not) edit your post if the source changes the title. Other types of posts should have a title which accurately, relatively neutrally describes their contents.
- For accessibility reasons, an image of text must either have alt text or a transcription in the post body.
- Reposts within 1 year or the Top 100 of all time are subject to removal. Within moderator discretion, this doesn't just include reposts of the exact same media but also includes e.g. a secondary source telling basically the exact same story as another that was already posted.
- This is not exclusively a US politics community. You're encouraged to post stories about anyone from any place in the world at any point in history as long as you meet the other rules.
- All Lemmy.World Terms of Service apply.

And propaganda works. Everytime. In one direction.
C'mon, what did Harry Styles do now?
In the direction of blaming someone.
In this case, that terrible moussemonger Harry Styles.
Propaganda goes both ways.
Ex.: guns cause violence. It's a classic Dem. talking point. (And highly ironic that they say, "no one needs a gun, just call the cops!" out of one side of their mouth, and "police are the oppressors of the working class and are the enforcers of systemic racism!" out of the other.) And yet we've just seen two terrorist incidents in the past week and a half that involved cars. Do rental trucks cause violence, maybe? I know I would be filled with rage if I was forced to drive a vehicle made by Musk's company...
p.s. - LGBTQ+ and nonwhite gun ownership rates are increasing, and I am so there for it.
