There was good speach about the exact effect that modern propaganda has by Timothy Snyder: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=eKFObB6_naw" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=eKFObB6_naw</a><p>The whole point of this kind of propaganda is to make people go &quot;meh, everybody&#x27;s lying, so I just won&#x27;t trust anybody&quot;.<p>You have police shooting black unarmed teen, and want people not to be angry about that - make a panel discussion with 12 people telling 12 versions of what happened, 11 of which blame the teenager. Accuse every other source of information of bias and lies. Many people will think &quot;there&#x27;s sth to this, I won&#x27;t know the truth anyway, not my problem, let&#x27;s ignore this issue&quot;.
