My friend doesn't think news is propaganda
How can I convince him that it is? Specifically, he watches a lot of PBS, but isn't PBS propaganda too? Like right now, all the news talks about is the coming recession..

Is there any news that is NOT propaganda?

It’s all propaganda magic that can bend the public’s will on demand.

Just takes the right messages pushed out throughout the right channels.

Marketing is very similar

Tell him to act like he’s from Pakistan. The democrats in congress will hire him in the IT dept. He can sell all crazy secretive Congressional committee contents to his homeland. Paki will in turn sell it to other countries.
It’ll be a blast!!!!!

Re: My friend doesn't think news is propaganda
If you tell him something that is different from PBS, and if you are a friend, when PBS is wrong and you are right, he will recognize and remember the fact.

The dam of propaganda will have its first crack. The you hammer at that crack till their mind is free to flow.

It's the only way.

If you try to force the issue too soon you risk losing a friend. You have to understand, people that believe in MSM are basically cult members at this point. People only leave cults through personal realization, or guidance of loved ones (or good friends, bro).

Helped several people break the hold the MSM held on their minds by doing what I wrote.

Point out to him how certain statements can be phrased differently. Undocumented workers vs. illegal immigrants or anti abortion vs pro life for example.

Re: My friend doesn't think news is propaganda
Your friend needs his comforting propaganda.

I have a friend like that. Total NPR whore. He's not even a news junkie like me. Not sure why he listens to that boring, monotone garbage but it shapes his opinions. He doesn't like sports or music much so he defaults to NPR.

I can red pill him on certain issues, but other things he's pretty much brainwashed on.

Really though it's best to just let them be.

Most of my friends I don't even bring up politics - but a few of them can't handle me being a TRUMP supporter so they always end up bringing it up. Typical stupid talking points since they don't follow the news closely and I do. Just a bunch of Orange Man Bad shit that I can always expose as garbage. It doesn't change their minds but it shuts them up for a bit. They know they are outmatched, but they still try to poke holes here and there.

When I decide to nuclear on them and just totally blow their shit up then they want to change the subject.

I have gotten a few of them to understand and actually. change their opinions - but that is only like 10-20% of them. Still pretty good I think. It's tough to get people to abandon their voting habits and turn on what they are accustomed to.

Re: My friend doesn't think news is propaganda
Thanks everyone. He is very knowledgable about banker occupation and globalists and such thats why I was shocked when he said that news is not propaganda. He watches so much news I think it is an addiction of sorts.
