Episode: Everyone Wants Peace Until They Get Hit With The War Propaganda
Description: Everyone's anti-war until the war propaganda starts.
Every normal person will tell you they want peace and abhor mass-scale violence. Then the mass media start doing what they always do and churning out stories about atrocities in an empire-targeted nation, and all of a sudden people find themselves supporting airstrikes on that nation's capital, and believing they came to that position all on their own.
This happens because most people are unaware that the western news media do not exist to report the news. They exist to administer propaganda on behalf of the western empire.
