That’s still not accurate. Propaganda is much more effective than most people are aware of/willing to admit.

You don’t have to be weak or stupid to fall victim to effective messaging and when all of the most trusted sources of information repeat the same pro-corporate and anti-worker propaganda for several lifetimes, everyone who’s not actively searching for independent sources (which is probably 25% of Lemmy but 75% of the general public) will inevitably be fooled into believing the lie since that’s the only information they have available

Calling people weak for that is textbook victim blaming and pretending that all we need to solve the problems is to be “stronger” is the kind of oversimplification used in the lies that got us here.
