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.

Honestly, I'm a bit hung over from St Patties and in regretting have made this post now.

I stand by the thrust of the title but otherwise I'm over what I said.

I need to take a nap.
