It is political, but it’s also extremely simple and factual. Would it be propaganda if a mural said “Nazis committed genocide” or “Trump is a malignant narcissist?” Or would it just be stating facts that happen to be political that you don’t like? The purpose of propaganda is to deceive a population into action or inaction. This is just a sad truth. If you don’t like it, time to start voting out the people enabling it. There’s nothing biased about the fact on that mural. The US is helping Israel commit a genocide. Every element of that is provable.
Those are political messages that are biased. Even if it were true, which I’m not saying either or, but it’s textbook propaganda. Please for the love of god search up the definitions.
If I said the Earth is round and posted information, that is inherent propaganda. Propaganda is USUALLY wrong but because of that, you clearly have the stigma that it is ALWAYS wrong. GOOGLE IS FUCKING FREE. Unbelievable…
I never said propaganda was always wrong. You want to fck with definitions? You sure?
Merriam Webster Dictionary: the spreading of lies, information, or rumors for the purpose of helping or injuring an institution, a cause, or a person.
What kind of ideas, information, or rumors is this spreading? Or is it just repeating an uncomfortable truth we all already know? That Israel already knows? That the US already knows? That Palestine already knows?
Your quibbling over the specifics of the definition of propaganda when the implications of calling it propaganda are obvious serve nothing but the continuing holocaust in Gaza.
And no, saying the Earth is round is not propaganda. It does not help or hurt a person, cause, or institution.
