The point of propaganda is not to change your opinion. The point is to demoralize you so that you do not resist.

Once you realize that you can overcome all propaganda.

When you get discouraged by what you see on the internet, remember that that was Satan's plan all along.

Go back to praying, listening to uplifting music, studying the Bible and remember that you are the change that God intends to unleash on the world. Every day you fight a spiritual battle and every day you do not give up is a day you win.

> Political correctness is communist propaganda writ small. In my study of communist societies, I came to the conclusion that the purpose of communist propaganda was not to persuade or convince, not to inform, but to humiliate; and therefore, the less it corresponded to reality the better. When people are forced to remain silent when they are being told the most obvious lies, or even worse when they are forced to repeat the lies themselves, they lose once and for all their sense of probity. To assent to obvious lies is in some small way to become evil oneself. One's standing to resist anything is thus eroded, and even destroyed. A society of emasculated liars is easy to control. I think if you examine political correctness, it has the same effect and is intended to.

― Theodore Dalrymple

You're welcome. I come back to it often. It's so demonstrably true, and he puts it so well.
