Anyone pushing their views is propaganda. Propaganda isn't always a bad thing, propaganda can be good, like antifascist or pro-communist propaganda, or it can be bad, like fascist propaganda.
Pretty sure manipulating people is bad. States entrap resources, populations, and say this is ours and this is how you have to be. Governments the world over are mostly bad. Especially the powerful countries. Ml can downvote me if they want. But if the east or west were either so good our world wouldnt be a shit hole filled with war. Its pretty obvious. The capitalists need to not exist anymore, the emirates need to give up their monarchies, and Russia needs to let go of Putin. There could be peace. People with power just love power more.
Influencing people to hold beliefs like 'nazis bad, colonialism bad, transphobia bad' is good, actually.
These type of motherfuckers have no problem with the self help guru scams or redpill influencers selling courses people into believing lies but they always draw the line at a communist telling a centrist, "Fascism is bad actually and diversity is good for everybody."
