These autistic people are immune to our propaganda, they must be stopped!

Counterpoint: Elon Musk & that one guy I went to high school with who only ever talked about Trump

He was their special interest.

Genuinely, for real. I was surprised the one time this guy managed to talk about something as novel as the weather.

Former far-right autist here, while most propaganda does not work on us, empathy manipulation is way more apparent. I legitimately believed abortion killed little babies, because very big scary numbers. I feared that some people might regret a homosexual lifestyle, and by the age of 40 they realize they actually wanted a big family.

But as people were way too gloating about the suffering of others, especially things I was told were "mandatory evils", I typed "Jewish conspiracy disproved" into Google, and after going through a few pages of SEO spam there by antisemites, I found some way out.

One another propaganda that works surprisingly well is through special interests. Ever wonder why fascists push the "woke propaganda" conspiracy theory in geek circles?

That jackass is not autistic, though; he's just, well, a jackass.

Those are not mutually exclusive.

[–] forrgott@lemmy.zip 2 points 2 weeks ago

I know they're not. But he's just a jackass. No other explanation needed.
