No, I'm saying just because propaganda promoting X doesn't occupy most of the media, it doesn't mean it's not propaganda. As an example, I told you that when racist Jim Crow propaganda was distributed, there was more media without Jim Crow propaganda than with. But it doesn't mean the Jim Crow propaganda wasn't propaganda.

It seemed like you were saying because there are more hetero images in media than LGBT, there can be no such thing as LGBT propaganda.

It's still not clear what point you were making with your original question, since you refuse to share what (if any) point you were trying to make.
Ok I see. The point I was making was in reference to your commenting on propaganda working. I'm not exactly sure what end goal you are saying mass media is trying to achieve(gay rights? turn people gay?), but my point was that if there is propaganda for one thing, but the same entity is putting out 100 times more propaganda for it's exact opposite, whats the fear/concern?

Am I supposed to be offended by a breh living his life? Let the man cook. He ain't harming no one.

I'm all about Black people experimenting and thinking outside the norm when it comes to art, style.etc

I will never understand why people let what other mofos do that aint got shyt to them with them bother them. This man's dress has no effect on my life no more than his suit does. I dont even watch the Oscars or know who the fukk this person is.

What really kills me is you aint going to do shyt about it. Just yapping online about nothing. You wouldnt say shyt to this man about his dress so why the fukk you quoting me for? Yall need to get ready for the workweek and quit worrying about nonsense.

Word. R.Kelly is far more damaging to the image of the Black man, but some dudes would cape for him and go off about this smh.

I disagree with the notion that "hetero propaganda" can even exist. That's like saying "propaganda of people breathing". Hetero is the natural state of man, if it weren't then humans wouldn't exist today. That should be an uncontroversial statement to even the most pro-LGBT person. Typically propaganda is a weapon, it's detrimental to some population. I can think of why a bad actor may want to influence a population to be LGBT (population control), but I can't think of a way to weaponize hetero relations.

I don't claim to know 100% whether there is an LGBT agenda, or what the aims of such an agenda would be, I just naturally go on alert when I see certain trends being pushed with vigor.

I see what you are saying. I guess from my standpoint I don't see it as propaganda. I see it as a time where people who are gay or live some type of alternative lifestyle are coming out the shadows. The world is different now. We know gay people have always been here, but in the past have been scared to be themselves, and probably with good reason. Could you imagine a dude wearing a dress to the Oscars 50 years ago? So if there is an agenda, it is trying to get more people to be honest about who they really are.

I personally believe Russianbots made him put on that dress :troll:

Obviously sowing the seeds of confusion and division
