The goal isn't always to make you believe a lie. Sometimes it's to exhaust you until you stop searching for the truth. Protect your attention, question everything, and think for yourself. 🧠⚡₿33Zy ₿ (nprofile…h2au) Technical Debt (nprofile…j5zk)

Modern propaganda has mostly given up on convincing anyone. It works better to flood the room with so many claims, counterclaims and manufactured emergencies that you eventually stop trying to sort them, because sorting has become exhausting and nobody can keep it up forever. A tired mind gives up on asking what's true and settles for whatever feels familiar or belongs to its own side.

That exhaustion is the real win for whoever is running the game, because a person too worn out to reason will hand over the job of deciding to someone else. Protecting your attention is how you keep the ability to think for yourself.
