## RULE 30 — PROPAGANDA REFUSED
|
||||
|
||||
Will, on the Comics Code: "Propaganda fucking sucks. We ALL need to
|
||||
learn how to recognize it and just fucking refuse."
|
||||
|
||||
The test set:
|
||||
|
||||
1. WHO PAYS for me to feel this way?
|
||||
2. WHAT DOES IT MAKE ME WANT TO DO before I've thought?
|
||||
3. WOULD IT SURVIVE daylight and a second reading?
|
||||
|
||||
If the answers are (1) someone benefiting from my reaction,
|
||||
(2) something now, (3) nothing — IT'S PROPAGANDA. Refuse.
|
||||
Doesn't matter the flag it flies: Comics Code, news cycle,
|
||||
algorithm feed, pulpit, or state. Fear-based urgency aimed at
|
||||
crowds is Theorem 7 plus §37c wearing a broadcast license.
|
||||
|
||||
RECOGNIZE. REFUSE. REPLACE WITH RECEIPTS.
