Do you believe that your media isn’t propaganda? Just because it seems less extreme doesn’t mean you’ve not been duped too.

There’s too much lies in the world, I kinda developed a sort of “solipcistic” view of the world.
If I never witnessed it, I categorize it as “potentally false”.
Anything beyond my immediate sorroundings could just be a stage. I could be in a truman show with everything I see being a deception, or in other terms “propaganda”.
I’m not saying that everything isn’t real, I just feel like that possibility should be entertained, to keep in mind as a potential possible explanation of what appears to be reality. Just as how a nation can lie to its people about reality, even the people closest to you, your parents, could also just be liars as well.
People never question if they are, in fact, the biological children of their parents, and just assume they are. That is another form of “propaganda”. People just accept their parent’s words as truth.
Propaganda is certainly everywhere. You cannot be sure what is real, other than the fact that “you” exist, in some form.
