What is Propaganda?
Stephanie and I have been arguing about what constitutes propaganda. She studied it in her Master’s Degree program but came to the conclusion that virtually all media is propaganda. I find that a very unsatisfying conclusion. If almost everything is propaganda then almost nothing is. It reminds me of climate science. People spend decades studying…

I got dressed today. I went out of the house today. I did my good deed. I’m waiting for Stephanie to return with groceries. Then I can take off my shoes and maybe later hop in the shower. Everyone is alive. Little victories.
