Yeah bullshit like that happened. But that bullshit didn't prevent the allies from accomplishing their objective, did it?

So it proves that bullshit doesn't prevent things from happening. Though I think magnifying minor bullshit problems to the point where people give up on achieving anything may actually prevent things from happening.

99% of propaganda is getting people upset over minor stuff. Right now the GOP is pushing two ideas at once; that Joe Biden isn't doing anything about the border AND that stopping Biden's border bill is a priority. Too mad to think straight is the goal.

Yeah the problem is that the internet has made everyone insanely meta about everything. Let's prevent Biden from solving this problem so he'll look bad so we can get rid of the guy that's trying to solve the problem we want to be solved because he didn't solve the problem because we stopped him from solving the problem because we want to get rid of him because he didn't solve the problem.

Talking in circles isn't just for politicians now. A lot of people have roleplaying on the internet as a press secretary for their favorite politician for so long now I don't think they even know why they're doing it, don't know why they support the politician they are fronting for and don't know or care about the issues.
