Propaganda is Propaganda

Michael Moore is funny fairly often but often his humor is at someone's expense. Particularly since his communication method is propaganda, the distruction is widespread since the targets of his barbs can be viewed as the people and institutions he skewers but just as easily we can turn the perspective around and see that his target is the audience he is sending his message to and that is us. The propaganda is working on us and that is the problem for me. Propaganda is propaganda no matter which side of the issue you're on. In fact if we approve of propaganda that is communicating our own point then we are no better than the fascists and communists that have used propaganda before us.
