Why must it always be propaganda in the Fediverse? Why can't it be a more sensible take like sensationalization? Not everything is out to get you, sometimes a desperate news site just wants a click or a reader.
Sensationalization infers that it happened and media turned it into misunderstood clickbait.
If the company designed the PR stunt and executed the PR stunt that would be propaganda.
There's literally no proof for the latter and the former is a lot more reasonable. I don't understand this need to jump to conclusions and call everything propaganda like it's a trump card.
Because the political zeitgeist here is dominated by edgy teenagers who still see the world as something done to them instead of something they are doing. It's extremely obvious if you've been through that phase of life already.
