Ah. So it's only indoctrination and propaganda when done to us. When it's done to you it's scripture.
The notion that propaganda isn't real is indistinguishable from suggesting that a person's mind can't be permanently influenced by the communicated word. That's particularly hilarious when written by somebody claiming to be a psychologist. You may as well have posted "These words don't exist and neither do I!!!"
