There is something about old educational movies like this that I just find utterly fascinating.

I've watched this before. Its good stuff

right? I feel like they were actually trying to educate people as opposed to well... propaganda lol.

haha good one.

Unfortunately, the majority of people fall for the propaganda. They sit in front of the old boob tube being mindlessly brainwashed more, and more every day. We've become so brainwashed that we honestly no longer know what the difference is between a man and woman!

I think one of the most common propagandas that countries tell men is that "You must sacrifice yourself."

Doesn't matter if its a good country that treats you well, where guys have strong rights, protections and families. Or countries that treat men like trash, and as people to steal everything from and mock them.

Everyone wants you to be the sacrifice. And you can just say no. Though they may try to outlaw you saying no or jail you for saying no.

do countries still do that? wasn't that like japan kamakazi nosnesne?

keeping in mind that like crazy religious groups aren't countries... keeping in mind that society doesn't consider christians to be "crazy".... so many caviats.

that's only because the average person is so susceptible to it... it's a thing people need to be made aware of or are easily fooled by... like the nigerian prince scam that the crooks tried to censor discussion of saying it was somehow "racist" to warn people about it >.>

But as soon as You try to point something out - it´s dismissed by "You´re a leftist", or by "You don´t like this country.", or by "It´s human nature.", or by "That´s socialism.", or by "Just leave this country.", or by "Elsewhere it´s worse.", or by "It is how it is.", or by "It´s always been that way.", or by....

Because people apparently want to try the same thing as before, but expect a different result - or even worse: they want to reverse time, while ignoring that the circumstances have changed, or that certain things aren´t really comparable. It´s exactly the same thing than with the new coke. It´s more about the emotions they combine with it - not about rational analysis.

Propaganda will try to block other media, crying it's "fake news", etc... It will try to censor to just one source being itself.

For example: MAGA or Putin's Russian Kremlin propaganda machine, etc

Notice how they deny and censor, even if claiming for free speech?

You do realize that the video you posted is in itself blatant, over the top, propaganda, right?

I realize you probably didn't even watch it considering the length vs your post time.

However, please enlighten me on what misinformation or disinformation is in it?

Well Corporate media works for it's shareholders 1st and foremost, their associates 2nd. So you're right about it.

Also it's important to know about doublespeak, a very common tool in the arsenal of ALL politicians, PR from corporations, think tanks, lobbyist, etc.

Examples: "1. Officer-involved shooting" -> Police shot a person.
"2. Department of Defense" -> War Department.

Edit; Also the funny EA example from a few years ago:
"EA when they call lootboxes 'Suprise Mechanics'"...

I'll admit that I did skip a bunch of it, but I caught the gist of it.

I saw nothing in it that suggested any objectivity by its authors. It seemed to cherry pick radicals and only demonize one side.

If you'd point out to me where in the video it objectively calls out both sides I'd be happy to re-watch that portion. Otherwise I stand by my statement that it is pure propaganda.

I'd also like to point out that something can be factual while remaining propaganda.

I think I'm identifying it at this very moment
