Seeing the world in "sides" makes it hard to discern truth from propaganda.

Seeing the world in "sides" makes it hard to discern truth from propaganda.
- ajsnigrutin 3y agoYou have two sides pushing their own propaganda. The truth is somwhere in the middle usually. Knowing the actual truth is in most cases impossible.
- cowpig 3y agoThis is exactly the view that propaganda pushes. There are not two sides, but rather a complex tapestry of different actors with many different philosophies which are inconsistent and change over time. Compressing that all down to "two sides" serves an agenda, and does a disservice to understanding the world for what it is.
- jstarfish 3y agoOnly ever hearing a single one of them is propaganda.
- RamblingCTO 3y agoGoogle is not a side though. It's a tool and what you see depends on how you use it, doesn't it? Odd thinking you have there.
- WarOnPrivacy 3y ago> Only ever hearing a single one of them is propaganda. I'm not sure that's a primary propaganda definer. Crafted propaganda is commonly half of a both-sides view from nowhere.
- 7moritz7 3y agoNo, it's not. Google was just first to the scene and established its name as synonymous with internet search. Just like photoshop, tesa, band aid, yoyo, jetski etc. Stop acting like everything is a conspiracy against you specifically, you aint a victim. PS search "yandex code leak racial slurs"
