… in our hellish, capitalist dystopia people gladly pay for it.

Streaming services are available everywhere: on TVs, computers, phones, tablets and anything else with a screen and a network card. They ensure an uninterrupted audiovisual assault on our mind with Pentagon-approved movies and made-for-binge-watching TV shows. All palatable to us because of sights and sounds that play to our emotions, moving along a simple plot with dialogue that never challenges. Our defenses are brought down and we aren’t even aware that our mind is filling up with neoliberal ideology.

    The images you describe are part of the propaganda. People think that’s the only way propaganda is delivered, and therefore they can’t possibly be propagandized.

      I meant more like how including liberal premises of how the world works into media. But I guess that only means it was made by liberals with their worldview. I still experience it as propaganda though, maybe cause I’m just sick of it.
