    may I ask you to stop using the kool aid metaphor and start using the term propaganda (if you think it’d be more effective, for example) ? just saying, eh.

    EDIT: downvote, but please explain, or ask me to explain. what kind of exchange is it otherwise?

      It’s a reference to the followers of Jimmy Jones who upon being asked consumed poison laced kool-aid. I think it’s a rather fitting statement

          I’m curious, why the desire to do such? Pop culture provides one of the biggest methods to allow for social cohesion amongst various social circles

            pop culture it’s also a resonance chamber, where you get used to messages, finally losing deeper, inner meaning, in my opinion. propaganda, the term itself, won’t lose its meaning and, again in my opinion, ends being more effective. ty for asking
