I only take special jobs, if you know what I mean.
Was reading through this quietly when I thought of something I thought might be interesting to add. Discendo Vox came up with a concept they didn't describe in much detail which was 'disrupting cognition'. And this made me think of a concept with an ACTUAL definition, Affective Override. Which is a term from a book ABOUT propoganda(that I have not read to be honest so I can't REALLY debate the veracity of its arguments, just the possible use of the term) called How PRopoganda Works by Jason Stanley which is when your emotions override your critical analysis. I heard about the term from this here youtube video:

If we want to boil propaganda down to 'information meant on some level to manipulate someone', then it feels almost pointless as a TOOL except as a way to get your foot in the door about further philosophical arguments not having to do with Media itself.
