Some of the resistance phonies and empire propaganda shitheads are headed to Mastodon.
In that case, these should go, too. Well, some already have. There are so many

I was just reading yet another propaganda piece from a mainstream US news outlet.
The way the word “reportedly” gets tossed about is amazing. Translation: it means a crock is coming up, much like using “some people say.”
The start of the article presented fantasy maybes. Within a few sentences, it was all hard fact.
Propaganda analysis is one of my bags. It’s puzzle solving. I like the challenge. I started with it in elementary school and never stopped.
Some of big elaborate lies come from from people who have books or movies to promote. Some have so much “documentation” that you could never check a fraction of it, so you check none of it. Part of that is to frustrate your response.
I used to get comments packed with links on a blog I had years ago. The implication was “check all these links before you respond to me.”
I called it “wheel spinning” the user. Assign a huge research project to the reader to thwart replies. Much of it was copy/paste that the person kept on hand ready to go, so it often didn’t make much sense.

I smile when some blank-profile keyboard warrior “word salads” an issue to lend credibility and appear to be intellectual.
It adds to the fun of sifting through the 5h1t. I’ve been a student of propaganda most of my life. I like it.
