I got called a Russian bot right when the war started and shit because I said that the ghost of Kiev was fake.

Even now when I mention it I am still called a Russian bot even though it been confirmed it fake

Well that's the effective part of the narrative control trick, isn't it? They can push whatever propaganda they want on the front page headlines because they know their target demographics aren't going to read or remember the retractions on page 3 a week later.

Unrelated but best example I can think of is Rittenhouse. The amount of people who still attempt to vilify this kid surprises me everyday. I see people still pushing the idea he carried a gun across state lines, I see people still pushing the idea he shot black people, I see people still pushing the idea that he went there looking for trouble. The propaganda is effective because they know most people are **extremely** intellectually lazy and will internalize the first bit of information that happens to confirm what they already want to believe at the exclusion of everything else, even retractions of that same information.

The right calls them NPCs, but it's hard to disagree with the framing there. Some people genuinely find too much comfort in believing in this illusion of majority support corporate media likes to create.
