They keep saying “misinformation” and “disinformation.” The applicable word is “propaganda.” (open.spotify.com)

It's fine to use the words misinformation and disinformation. The latter implies that the person conveying the message is in on the deception.

Propaganda can be truthful.

MSM is only surviving on the backs of advertisers. Their #2 purchaser of advertising? Pharmcorp usa—-do think i’d speak out against my pimp if he’s the one scheduling me wealthy white-collar Johns and go back to street walking?

Good point. There are also about a million ways that US intelligence can funnel money to them through "advertisers."

Linked is the latest episode of JRE with that one dude who youtube scrubbed the video of his Testimony before The Senate. (Maybe the House, this is my first post ever and i’m low energy)

The hardback Merriam-Webster dictionary I have from 1999 says “Propaganda: the use of misinformation or disinformation on a mass scale to influence a population’s thoughts and opinions”

Now it says some other half-assed definition: https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/propaganda

Propaganda: the use of misinformation or disinformation on a mass scale to influence a population’s thoughts and opinions”

Well - first of all those definition is correct if you use words with their correct meaning. This is indeed better:

the spreading of ideas, information, or rumor for the purpose of helping or injuring an institution, a cause, or a person

There is a reason why those having power do not openly link you and all the people to their cookbooks. Manipulating people,dark psychology is indeed very powerful tool. Source of power - or ideas to stay against it.
