I know it sucks bro but i watched legit propaganda videos both on Al Jazeera and through an islamic news source which showed fake acts of war. I dissuade them and they either disappear or i get blocked from seeing that video any longer. / Snowden is a cautionary tale, but a good one.

That's a key phrase, 'facts which are counter to someone's identity bounce off'. In my part of the world for example, climate change denial is directly linked to how much of your identity, including job and finances, is linked to how important the oil and gas industry is to you. In fact, I know very intelligent people such as engineers and technicians who should know better but simply refuse to learn anything factual, out of sheer self-interest. Like someone said, 'The ability to convince someone of something is zero if their pay check is dependent on not believing it'. And pay check is just the most obvious 'identity' motivation. Politics is a motivation. Race is a motivation. Gender is a motivation. They all involve your most personal myths.
Lots of intelligent people, including scientists, disagree about climate change. Lots of people know there’s no human solution to the natural patterns of the earth. Tell yourself whatever you want about other people. I see a lot of individuals whose entire personality is gone, they really believe they have something to fight for with global warming. They feel a sense of belonging and also a feeling of superiority. Kind of like flat earthers.
@@RunninUpThatHillh You may want to tell yourself that but it's nothing more than a denier catch-phrase. The blunt reality is that the more you know about science the more you realize that the body of knowledge about climate and climate change is not really contestable anymore. Virtually all those who still contest it do so because their livelihood is reliant on fossil fuels, their prosperity is dependent on fossil-fuel driven basis, or increasingly their political fortunes are reliant on opposing measures to combat climate change for purely cynical and selfish reasons of political power. But you go ahead and comfort your inability to wrap your head around the implications of climate change by pretending there is a basis for your denial. It's too important to your identity.
The "learning" you demand they do is just propaganda. Science hasn't been based on truth for probably decades. You don't even know there is a "crises of science", you wouldn't know where to find the documentary or who created it.

People trapped in a reality shaped by propaganda can easily fall victim to false beliefs due to religious indoctrination.

This false reality offers comfort, and their religious upbringing has prepared them to believe in anything.

I think the idea is great, but I think the implementation in the modern world will be challenging. It is not that an average Russian does not know about the corruption, I think people just know they cannot speak up because they are living in a police state. In the case of right wing people a lot of social networks just reinforce the bubble some of the people are in, so they never see the other side even if the other side speaks in the same language...
You must watch news and comment from both sides of the political spectrum. I don't know how to convince people in a media bubble to do this, but it is one way to break the programming.
Not accurate. In many cases these "news" sources are just copy-paste propaganda themselves. It's much easier to spread lies than the truth. So you'll find much more of those lies across the media/web.
Yes, do watch CNN and NBC (conservative) and also get your hands on true left-wing literature representing communist ideology (leftist.) Fox News should be shut down and its staff put in jail.
giving your brain a pile of crap to process from both sides doesn't help that much either. It's probably better, but not good enough and not time efficient imo. The processes and conclusions derived from a bunch of misinformation is just another misinformation. Personally I choose the 3rd option of just giving up on politics and enjoying my life. The propaganda machine is levels of magnitude stronger than the average person's political capabilites. Dissociating and judging politics based on how it directly affects your life gives you the best most efficient outcome for the average person.

The fact that there is NOT A SINGLE TED talk that specifically addresses these words even made in 2024... shows what TED talks are all about. ALOT OF ENTERTAINMENT that never gets to the point.

This candidate rose to popularity because of mounting frustrations over rising inequality. Its a fact that will accurately juxtapose every single other topic into context supported by reports research and evidence. I used to love listening to TED. I still like listening to intelligence at work, but none of what i see from this channel ever gets to the point.

Interesting how much n4zis are talked about and used to compare to the right. How is this comparison at all helpful? Isn't this talk using the rhetoric of hate towards n4zis and the right to build interest in this video?? Part of separating people from propaganda is separating from strong emotions and yet this talk, in comparing the right to n4zis is creating the very emotion that embodies propaganda.
The right is blaming ethnic groups for society's problems, want to force religion on everyone, are pro censorship and book-burning etc. What comparison would be more appropriate for you?
Talking about propaganda, this person fails to see how they're trying to frame war crimes against Russia while ignoring the crisis unfolding in Gaza. It's frustrating to see such selective outrage. The government and academia have truly let humanity down, yet they still have the audacity to speak about propaganda as if they are unbiased intellectuals.
Selective outrage about Gaza is the norm, despite the fact that far more people have been killed in the Ukraine Russia war, and indeed many other true genocide.
You can't win when you don't have the truth on your side. And if you care at all about the human right of free speech, you shouldn't be trying to silence others.
As true as that often is, I'm sure some fascists would say the same. Silencing people's words when they promote dangerous acts (fake medicines, violent acts, whatever) is a moral decision: one that can save lives.
@@l01230123 That is a moral evil to stand against someone's human right to speech. You are supposed to answer speech with speech of your own, not silence your opposition. "when you cut off a man's tongue, you only prove you fear what he might say".

You suggested this propaganda should be aimed at the 'right wing echo chamber' but aren't they wanting to end the war in Ukraine?
They want to end the war by appeasing Putin. That sort of 'ending the war' tends to end badly.
This man generalises all Russians and describes all Russians as bad people. For me as a Russian it was very offending to watch this. I could not watch after 3d minute. Peace to Ukraine.
Slava Ukraini! 💪

Yes. Free Palestine from hamas.
Stop whining online and go there to fight in person. Oh, you don't really care that much? What a shock. Your gov't doesn't really care either.

Sorry man. Critically important topic, but you gotta work on your presentation, be it style, persona, medium, whatever, but I had to hit the pause button at 7 minutes for a stretch bc I’m bored out of my mind on a topic I’m direly interested in.

Just to see what they plan on using as propaganda to silence real truth.
