Watch this…

Radio Free Asia: “did you know in North Korea they eat babies?”

Me: “I don’t believe that.”

Radio Free Asia: “WHAT?!?!? How did you do that???”

See. And I’m just a dumbass who does nothing but smoke weed and watch pirated b-horror movies. Whats everyone else’s fucking excuse?

People fall for this shit because they want to, not because the state department has magical brainwashing powers. Propaganda doesn’t mean people don’t have fucking agency.

    I get what you’re saying but isn’t the conclusion of this line or logic that nobody can be held accountable for anything? Like are we just embracing hard determinism? Is every Nazi innocent of their crimes because the only reason they turned out that way cuz their mom made them ham and Swiss instead of Turkey and provolone for lunch one day?
