      I just remember whenever I look at maps of “Treaty Sinatories”, "UN Reolutions or “Progressive Movements Worldwide” then Nicaragua and North Korea tend to agree on most things.

      I’ve not seen any “propaganda” one way or the other. Literally just my interpretation when looking at maps of the world and voting records.

        Not really sure what point you’re trying to make with that. Both Nicaragua and DPRK are resisting US aggression, and thus have common interest.

        Look, I know you’re feeling a little dog piled here, so you’re probably going to dismiss this comment as more of that, but I really do just want to ask you to think very, very carefully about these words right here;

        I’ve not seen any “propaganda” one way or the other.

        Yes. Yes you have. That’s the point. Effective propaganda never openly labels itself as propaganda. That’s like me saying “I am trying to influence your decision.” You’re basically going to immediately refuse to do whatever I suggest. Smart propaganda disguises itself in a myriad of ways that can be extremely difficult recognize.

        You are constantly being exposed to propaganda. Accepting that fact, and learning to look for and recognize it, is the first step in freeing yourself from its effects. Telling yourself that you’re not being affected by propaganda is like telling yourself that you don’t have a drinking problem.
