With freedom, It depends how we look at it from what perspective. We talking about, certain aspects of society or the whole thing altogether

The big one that upsets me is when people downplay the importance of space technology. You often see or hear people in the media or social media bashing billionaires like Elon for his space missions. Claiming that the money should be put to better use. I say it is being put to good use. Space technology will define future conflicts, with states wanting to set up their own information and weapons system in orbit, or to compete for resources in the void via space mining. The mistake people make is that people are aware of these distortions at the farther ends of either spectrum but by thinking this way they end up believing said distortions aren't present in the more moderate opinions/situations of either the left/right and thus still end up influenced by falsehood and manipulated to various degrees. No one is immune but it becomes increasingly unlikely to be influenced if you have your own extensive knowledge base to draw from [and thus recognize anomalies] and also to avoid herd like behaviours. Yeah shows you what kind of people the people one knows might be, if they're willing to end a relationship because you don't agree with them.

I am not 100% immune to it, but because I do study in history field I am taught and I am studying on books which are soaked in propaganga from ancient times, middle-ages, napoleonic times, XIX-XXI century, so I do try to avoid propagandas and manipulation and not let them change my mind/view but it is impossible to avoid every single one of them.

The image grew ubiquitous to the point where reinterpretations of it began spreading on Tumblr as well. For example, user TGGeko posted a drawing of a realistic cat with the phrase (shown below, left). User Fuliajulia created an edit in which the text was replaced with Bode (shown below, right). I believe that an effective propagandist does not teach his or her audience something new, but rather tells them something they have always thought and connects it to a political action in a new way. Because you know/believe X you should vote for Y or shoot Z. This means that propagandacan sometimes be reassuring as it affirms existing ideas.Of course sometimes that idea is a negative, as withpropagandato encourage and enemy soldier to surrender because “defeat is inevitable.”That might include a reassuring element: “surrender and you will be well-treated; your enemy is asking you to surrender because he respects the brave way in which you have fought.”I see some of the most perniciouspropagandaas that which plays to the audience's sense of themself as a victim with a unique need to be compensated by the rest of the world.That is at the heart of the current wave of nationalistpropagandaaround the world.Even victors like the citizens of theUnited States are encouraged to think of themselves as losers whose way of life is endangered and must be defended from outsiders who seek to supplant them. 5. Do you believe that mostpropagandahas a negative intent? I see culture as the total of lived experience of a community—where the boundary of that community is drawn and what the political implication of that may be is the big question. A culture can be as large as the entire population of the world or as small as two people (say twins with a secret language).Any smaller than two and you have a survivor of a culture, rather than a culture.Nations have historically looked to distinctive aspects of their culture as elements of their identity.For Danes, say, this means big things like language, social mores and residence in a particular location as well as small things like having a hole in their coins. The interface betweenpropagandaand culture then is often thatpropagandainvokes culture as something to be protected.More than this some countries have seen culture as being one of their assets and have sought to introduce their culture to others as a way of increasing their “soft power” in the world.Once something is claimed as characteristic of national identity it then becomes an issue to be defended so culture andpropagandacan be a self-reinforcing loop. 4. What effect doespropagandahave on people? And it'll probably get worse lol; even with the last few years bringing about even greater craziness in what you can and can't say And relationships that depend too much on which side you support or even just not support enough are quite fragile. Now the scary part is when enough people follow a specific narrative where it starts to become "okay" to not treat people based on their ethnicity or medical choiceThe latest test was this COVID pandemic. This one is ongoing and controversial so I won't comment on it. Yeah Anti-German sentiments at the time were probably awful, just awful. Here's an example of how much people were overreacting. Kitchener, a city in Canada was originally called Berlin, changed it's name in 1916. So much of our world was shaped bypropagandain one way or another. I am especially interested in the successful British campaign to bring Americans into World War II in the run-up to Pearl Harbor.That was the subject of my first book, and I remain impressed by the techniques used and the characters who took part.Evidence of effectiveness may be found in the continued admiration of Americans for the man at the heart of the campaign—Winston Churchill—and such elements of it asBBC News(although the skill of the BBC was to achieve theirpropagandaaims through use of credible facts and journalism). 7. How didpropagandainfluence the 20th century? And then people say they're not being manipulated when they only react when they're being told to do so from the media and politicians of their country/region
