    Is it inaccurate to say Biden/Garland slow rolled arresting Trump?

      Propaganda doesn’t have to be inaccurate to be propaganda.

      All it needs to do is fulfill an ulterior intent

      The old Uncle Sam ‘I want you’ posters weren’t even factual claims but they certainly were propaganda that led to many people signing up that would have otherwise lived.

        So facts are propaganda now. Got it.

          Actually yes. Something can be both true and shown in a biased or misleading way.

          https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/propaganda

          ideas, facts, or allegations spread deliberately to further one’s cause or to damage an opposing cause

            The dictionary proving me wrong is propaganda! /s

            Fair enough, however.

        Propaganda doesn’t have to be inaccurate to be propaganda.

        It just has to disagree with your worldview.

          Incorrect, there’s plenty of propaganda that agrees with my worldview, and that’s the most insidious and most important to be vigilant against.

          Why are you putting words into my mouth? Scared of a conversation?

            Why are you putting words into my mouth?

            I’m not. I’m outright saying that you dismiss anything that disagrees with you as propaganda.
