Propaganda is self reinforced as much as it is externally reinforced, it’s a lot like a barbed arrow that dogs in the more you try to remove it. Sure there are some who can just rip it out with raw willpower, but most victims require anothers help. Problem is most don’t see themselves as a victim of propaganda.

vaultdweller013@sh.itjust.worksto Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•Duke University appears to have lost research grants because they used the prefix "trans" in reference to disease transmission, transgenic material, translational studies and signal transductionEnglish51·7 days agoNo it’s just stupid, Nazi Germany, Fascist Italy, and Imperial Japan were all fascistic and could be described as a cavalcade of idiots. A good example is Germany’s so called wonder weapons where the only one which was both effective and decently cheap was the V1 rocket, everything else was a waste of time and effort that if any other country did would’ve gotten someone shot.
vaultdweller013@sh.itjust.worksto Games@lemmy.world•Young men are 'playing videogames all day' instead of getting jobs because they can mooch off of free healthcare, claims congressmanEnglish3·8 days agoBTW Steam Sumner sale is going on right now, Robocop for 5 bucks for the win! Id buy that for 5 dollars.
vaultdweller013@sh.itjust.worksto Games@lemmy.world•Young men are 'playing videogames all day' instead of getting jobs because they can mooch off of free healthcare, claims congressmanEnglish4·8 days agoAs someone who is 25 I must agree, not only do I not give a damn I actively welcome death. Shitty fucken eyesight not withstanding, I think there’s thinner ballistic glass
vaultdweller013@sh.itjust.worksto People Twitter@sh.itjust.works•... I don't like them either1·13 days agoPeople don’t eat the center? Why? Like I know it can be kinda dry depending on the bun, but like just scoop up some of the residue on the edge of whatever container it was in.
vaultdweller013@sh.itjust.worksto Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•The White House is paving over the Rose Garden with concreteEnglish11·17 days agoI wouldn’t say those two things are mutually exclusive, Trump is dumber than shit and also a raging malicious bastard. The Nazis were both malicious as hell and stupid as fuck.
vaultdweller013@sh.itjust.worksto Technology@lemmy.world•SpaceX's Starship blows up ahead of 10th test flightEnglish1·18 days agoI ain’t using dingus firstly cause I’m pretty sure dankpods has a copyright on it and secondarily it has none of the gutteral bite that damned near every other insult in my dialect has. Also I go out of my way to commit some level of ad hom since I find that it’s a fine way to figure out if folks have thick enough skin to take seriously, worst case scenario they throw a punch and that’s just a good time for me.
vaultdweller013@sh.itjust.worksto Technology@lemmy.world•SpaceX's Starship blows up ahead of 10th test flightEnglish2·18 days agoYep me being an uncouth asshole has little to no bearing on my point. It’s like those uppity cunts who act like theyre better just cause they don’t swear, usually they are morons I mean Mormons and thusly my inbuilt snob filter works wonders.
vaultdweller013@sh.itjust.worksto Technology@lemmy.world•SpaceX's Starship blows up ahead of 10th test flightEnglish8·18 days agoThen wallow in thine ignorance pissant.
vaultdweller013@sh.itjust.worksto Technology@lemmy.world•SpaceX's Starship blows up ahead of 10th test flightEnglish493·18 days agoIf you like SatNav, accurate weather tracking, and advanced intercontinental communication then ya like rockets ya dipshit.
While Id be the first to ban private rocket launches outright, we shouldn’t abandon the advances of the space age because of them.
As a wise man once said “The sun is a deadly laser!”
vaultdweller013@sh.itjust.worksto Technology@lemmy.world•Dyson Has Killed Its Bizarre Zone Air-Purifying HeadphonesEnglish4·24 days agoThat and sometimes R&D are given funds to fuck around with, worst case scenario nothing comes of it best case they make a massive return on investment. Sometimes you need to throw together a prototype to see if anything out of it is useful, sure the device as a whole may be pointless but maybe someone stumbled upon a useful quick release concept.
vaultdweller013@sh.itjust.worksto Technology@lemmy.world•Salt Lake City, plans to implement AI-assisted 911 call triaging to handle ~30% of about 450K non-emergency calls per yearEnglish112·24 days agoWhoever is pushing this bullshit needs to be drowned in a barn drainage ditch brought back and then have it done again, keep repeating until either their lungs are caked in cow shit or whatever few braincells they have are dead.
vaultdweller013@sh.itjust.worksto Games@sh.itjust.works•Steam beta gets native Apple Silicon support — the only public Arm version of SteamEnglish3·24 days agoI think they may just be a mind melted apple fan boy. Its either that or apple managed to make those Cybermen earbuds from Doctor Who, ya know the ones from the episode with the Daleks and the dimensional rift.
vaultdweller013@sh.itjust.worksto TenForward: Where Every Vulcan Knows Your Name@lemmy.world•"Which fictional universe would you rather live in?"3·25 days agoSend me to the elder scrolls just after the Warp in the West stops making time fucky, by the time anything interesting happens I should be set up to comfortably avoid it. I’ll just stay the fuck away from Morrowind and find a nice defensive city during the Oblivion Crisis, guess id bunker down in Winterhold since it would still be packed with mages.
vaultdweller013@sh.itjust.worksto Technology@lemmy.world•An LAPD helicopter claimed to have ID'ed protesters from above and threatened to "come to your house"English3·27 days agoOr even just dress how they’d expect their own to dress, don’t even need a dumbass hat. I wear an old tan leather jacket and a Swedish combat cap which apparently translates to friend for them. Also applies to the anarchists though, they see my clothes as friendly.
vaultdweller013@sh.itjust.worksto Games@sh.itjust.works•The Outer Worlds 2 Is Microsoft's First Confirmed $80 GameEnglish5·28 days agoIt’s kinda mid, id suggest Tainted Grail if ya want a Bethesda like game. Doesn’t quite scratch the itch but it’s close enough.
vaultdweller013@sh.itjust.worksto Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•All this produce is going to spoil at the food bank where I volunteerEnglish8·28 days agoI work for a produce delivery company as a courier and yeah fresh produce is ass for storage and transit. I’m legit thinking about jury rigging a small air conditioner into the back of my truck for summer cooling.
Have you seen if there’s any way for your foodbank to do canning?
vaultdweller013@sh.itjust.worksto Technology@lemmy.world•iFixit says the Switch 2 is even harder to repair than the originalEnglish4·1 month agoNES actually, a good number of PC games got made because folks didn’t want to deal with Nintendo and Sega arguably got into the market cause Nintendo was too strict in their publishing policy. That last bit is ironic given the AI slop and hentai on their online store, nothing against the hentai I just think it’s funny.
Fun fact a company did this with DVDs back in the day, once you broke the seal on it the air would react with a coating on the disk which would become increasingly dark until it became unreadable.
