I have nothing against pg, except for the fact that when he said something I found absurd I had to mute him on Twitter. I don’t find propagandist compelling at all and have no interest in reading the outcome of their thoughts.
- zug_zug 4y agoSo when you say propagandist does that mean he spreads lies on behalf of a government? Reading between the lines it sounds like you find him to be deliberately dishonest about something(s)?
- jamesredd 4y agoPropaganda has nothing to do with the government. It has to do with perverting the truth in favor of a narrative.
- zug_zug 4y agoOkay. You don't have to answer this if you don't want to. I have no dog in this race, I'm just curious. But if you do want to answer, when you say "perverting the truth" does that mean deliberately saying inaccurate things in bad faith for self-interest? Or do you think he genuinely believes what he says but is incorrect in what he believes? Also, I'm curious does it bother you equally when other people push a narrative, or moreso because he's famous/mildly-influential?
