I'm on .ml and I fucking hate cops. You'll never see me concern trolling on behalf of some dead pigs.

I read this like "tamale" and was stumped for longer than I care to admit.

Propaganda is a weapon. In an ideal world we wouldn't need weapons at all. But when an enemy is using a weapon against you--whether it is a spear, crossbow, gun, cannon, tank, nuke, or propaganda--you need to do one of two things:

1. Deploy a defensive solution to neutralize the weapon
2. Use the weapon yourself to even the battlefield

History is littered with examples of conflicts that were lost due to the inability to adapt to contemporary warfare. I've not aware of any feasible solutions to defend against propaganda. Many solutions would be deemed autocratic themselves (e.g., banning the sources of the propaganda, such as Fox News).

The "high road" solution would be to educate and deprogram the affected individuals. But deprogramming 10s of millions of people is a monumental undertaking, would likely take generations, and would be met with resistance the entire way. The logical conclusion for someone looking to improve the situation in their lifetime is to pursue (2) and deploy counter propaganda.

Left wing fascism is NOT the answer to right wing fascism

I get what you are trying to say, though I think it would be more accurate to phrase it as "left wing authoritarianism is not the answer to fascism" because "left wing fascism" is an oxymoron.

That said, I don't think the use of propaganda by the left in a battle against the forces of chaos would inevitably lead to a left wing autocracy. But even if there was a chance it did, I would still prefer it to the certainty of a fascist takeover that comes from completely neglecting one of the war fronts. I imagine we would both agree that right wing propaganda has done massive damage to our society. Why would we let that continue unchecked?

Probably getting the idea from his DEI wife. Someone better tell some patriotic MAGAs to do something about it.

My new status: is gesmolten

Taking the high road is what got us into this mess. The heart and mind is a battlefield just like the physical battlefield and cyberspace. If you forfeit one front to the enemy you unnecessarily put yourself at a disadvantage in the war.

Civilized white males have a moral obligation to fight in the vanguard against fascists. Use the enemy's bias to infiltrate, exploit, and neutralize them wherever possible.

Imagine having a heart so weak that a little piece of fabric over your chest restricts your blood flow.

In practical terms, you feed them to pigs and butcher the pigs. The pigs act as a filter.

Delete all P = NP law. Return the sand from whence it came.

Propaganda is just marketing for political ideology. Most people are unprincipled homunculi and need to have these ideas sold to them.

Could somebody please turn that scene from Saving Private Ryan where the wall falls down and they absolutely blast the Nazis, and then Ted Danson says "clear up" but replace it with "queer up"?
