    Instead of a 9-minute video telling people how they should feel, why not quote Trump directly?

    I believe this is what the video spent so much time not quoting:

    @realDonaldTrump

    As we move forward in Uniting our Nation after the horrific events on Saturday, this dismissal of the Lawless Indictment in Florida should be just the first step, followed quickly by the dismissal of ALL the Witch Hunts — The January 6th Hoax in Washington, D.C., the Manhattan D.A.’s Zombie Case, the New York A.G. Scam, Fake Claims about a woman I never met (a decades old photo in a line with her then husband does not count), and the Georgia “Perfect” Phone Call charges. The Democrat Justice Department coordinated ALL of these Political Attacks, which are an Election Interference conspiracy against Joe Biden’s Political Opponent, ME. Let us come together to END all Weaponization of our Justice System, and Make America Great Again!

      The post title made me think he was gonna say something more unhinged but this is like…less crazy than he usually is. He’s been off the deep end for a decade or more

      The January 6th Hoax in Washington, D.C.

      Does he think that we’ve just forgotten about that already? We’ve all seen the videos. We’ve all heard the orders from his own mouth. What an absolute turd of a human being. Pepper.

      I’m a fan of the documentaries of Adam Curtis on Bernays, but merely educating people about the history of Propaganda/Public Relations/Advertising provides no useful skills for liberating yourself from harmful thinking patterns that benefit the rich and powerful. Merely knowing about it does not immunize you from it, and worse, may give you false confidence.

      A good place to start to understand how propaganda works in a modern nation is understanding the propaganda model. A good documentary about this is Manufacturing Consent.
