    Telltale Signs of AfD Propaganda

    1. Buzzwords, like „You wont believe what happened“ or „Greens telling propaganda, but then instant karma happened“
    2. Dude with alleged „Dr. Title“
    3. Talking about how the Public Media is „wrong“ and „you will see the truth only on my unknown youtube video

    And this video checks all 3 boxes for me

    Also, if youre actually a doc, and you uncovered Propaganda, write a fucking paper about it, publish it in media, or whatever. Youtube is the least trusted place to publish stuff like this

      Have you actually listened to the video? Is there anything untrue that was said? Do you have anything substantial to criticize? Could you please engage with the content?

      This video is not clickbait and has nothing to do with with the AfD. It is a serious critical discussion of the role of media in fabrication of war propaganda on behalf of western governments. It accurately decribes and analyzes how war propaganda is conveyed through deliberate choices of language, exclusion and marginalization of contrary voices, and how this propaganda has and continues to be produced by the mainstream media to support the government’s official narrative and agenda. The video talks about how the media covered various wars such as Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria, Yugoslavia, etc.

          What is the point of attacking the format? Listen to the video and engage in a substantive discussion or stop wasting everyone’s time.

          Also, there have been plenty of articles and papers and books written about this stuff. Have you read any of them?

          Maybe this is a way to reach a broader audience than discussing these things in niche academic papers that no one reads.

          ah yes, publish it into a paper that just a handful of people will ever read instead of an YouTube video that can be accessed by millions instantly.

      also those videos get tens to hundred thousands of views, which is really concerning. who watches these? idk though if this one here is a right wing propagandist, i didnt watch it yet, but you are mostly correct
