My mom came over to babysit. We went on a walk and she mentioned the baby decapitations and I said it is propaganda. And then she said they showed it on tv…! And that there is a clear enemy, Hamas. I said no, they’re freedom fighters, and you’re being propagandized. She decided to go home. (Wish I were making this up)
Could I have played it better? Yes. Is the united states the most propagandized country in the world? Yes.
Is it not a stretch to say I insulted her? Like, saying someone is being propagandized doesn’t seem like an outright insult. They are on the receiving end of a bunch of biased media.
That is giving them too much credit. Often the black men convicted of violent crimes are scapegoats, but at least a crime was committed. Here? Pure fabrication.
Sure but it’s the best attempt at a current comparison to something they should already be against in order to illustrate the mindset they’re carrying.
One that isn’t current I guess is viewing black people as if they’re all predisposed rapist apes. But I don’t know if that’s coming on a bit too strong. It does illustrate the kind of mindset they’re carrying though, when they think of muslim arabs they assume they’re some sort of barbaric rapist monsters and all of their analysis is coloured by the prejudice this base assumption creates.
I think if the “war between people and vermin” quote posted the other day was real (still waiting on footage from them. . .) then that is an apt comparison.
Just to clarify what you’re saying: Not committed by them. Cops frame people all the time. Or lock people up without any kind of faked evidence even. They’ve recently executed people who were essentially known to be innocent.
Friends got mad at me for doubting this story…

They showed it on TV, huh.
So she’s just imagining propaganda now?
They showed something that was hard to watch, that’s for sure. My poor mom, watching war snuff films on cable tv…
Instead of insults, ask what they showed on TV, because I doubt it was 40 baby heads.

This isn’t a matter of who was wronged, it’s a matter of getting them to listen.
Racist friends.
Ask them if them what they think about black crime statistics.
