Propaganda? You believe that mental health care is politically driven?

• lynx23 4y ago
  No. I believe every profession needs to do some PR for their services such that everyone wanting to work in that profession actually gets to find a job. So the more therapists there are, the more "propaganda" you need such that they actually can find customers. And listening to casual conversations in US soaps, it is rather obvious from a bystander perspective that therapy-is-something-you-want is an agenda that is being pushed since at least 20 years.

    Why use the word propaganda? Makes your comment really stand out as flame bait.

      Ay! @lynx23 at risk of annoying you with another request to keep with the positive tone of the post... Please entertain this honest question with a reasonable response. I'm no mediator, arbiter, or moderator. I'm just enjoying this app a lot and don't want other folks to reduce themselves to negativity. Sorry for sticking my nose in your business.

      I personally dont make much of a destinction between PR, Ads and Propaganda. Especially since 2020. I am sorry if I triggered you. Did not mean to.

        Since 2020? What changed the acceptation of these words for you before they were distinguishable?
        • lynx23 4y ago
          Is your question sarcastic? I leave it up to you to guess what kind of abuse of public media might have triggered the distain for Ads/Propaganda/PR in the year 2020. Its obvious enough anyways.
