Propaganda doesn't totally rob people of ~~agency~~ free will (more accurate term), if it did this site wouldn't exist. People do have the capacity to develop critical thinking, skepticism, and a basic curiosity about the world that allow them to develop some resistance to propaganda.

You can hold people accountable for failing to even attempt to do this.

All those judgements are still subjective, and the people you are judging are often judging right back. Let's be real, if you would like to get all judgmental perhaps you should be asking yourself why we're wasting time on a shitposting website while the world burns instead of doing actual work towards revolutionary action. This site is very much not an endpoint for leftism, it's a speedbump. There are like a relative handful of people on this site doing revolutionary work while the rest of us cosplay as leftists, accomplishing just as little as any other lib.

Well if nothing else that's a good point
