There was always ignorance, just in recent decades and centuries we decided to give these people the reins. When you look at early democratic models it was never a case of literally anyone with a pulse given the right to vote. They all had

You are getting caught up in how the sausage is made and not the fact that the sausage was always getting sold either way. So what if I can make 1 or a billion propaganda videos a day? The volume here does not matter. The end result is the

Are we acting like that was ever a limiting factor towards disseminating propaganda in the analog age?

Plenty of people. If you have running water, some tape, and trashbags, you too could have a darkroom. https://www.metmuseum.org/exhibitions/objects/objects@exhibi... The roll itself can be manipulated too. Most of

It is really not any different. People would throw a hubcap in the air and pitch it as a UFO photo and idiots would latch on to that. You could take a photo of the empire state building and use a double exposure to make it look like you wer

This is only true when you compare the PhD field degree to something like finance where you can make real money at 23 years old. If the alternative is a bs for a path where most people end up going PhD, you will be working for like $20&#x2F
