    "Your government lies to you and wants war with foreign nations to enrich their capital owning class including politicians who are "legally" bribed by those capitalists."

    Here's a crazy idea... stop lying and stop funding endless wars to profit the most evil pieces of shit on earth?

    If a person was doing a shitty thing, I dunno, let's say they get drunk and hit their wife a lot. And a neighbor starts telling the other people in town "Hey, you know Tom gets drunk every night and abuses his wife?" Is the correct response to

    A. Make Tom stop beating his wife

    or

    B. Shoot the neighbor, shoot the wife, make Tom the mayor

    Liberals reflexively smash B. Everything they call "propaganda" could be neutralized with finger snaps (aka presidential executive orders or simply not sending bombs...). Or most things anyway.

    I don't think most people fall for this either. Only the most reclusive, fully bought-in, bougie-ass motherfuckers who not only love to deny genocide but openly support it while acting like the horrors unleashed by Israel/US are natural disasters and "nothing can be done. But it's so tragic!" seem to believe this bullshit.

    "Normal people" either don't pay attention, and the media makes that incredibly easy by never speaking about it, or know these demons are all lying pieces of shit. Thus, the popularity of people like Trump who exploit this inherent knowledge in people's minds for his own evil ends (the same or similar enough ends, so, that's really great and cool...)
