(81,318 posts)4. Nothing wrong with repeating the messaging again and again and again -
"...you know, to kind of catapult the propaganda."
It's good to remember, and to get reminded, especially if it feels as though you're surrounded by nothing but wrong-wing-all-the-time talk, cable, TV, and other outlets. Sometimes self-reinforcement helps to keep the spine stiff. Especially when we can't count on our reps or our media to tell the truth and put outfits like the NRA into proper perspective.
But you're correct - it's annoying. I'd love to pretend they don't exist and don't indulge in talking about it. But as Mad-Eye Moody always warned Harry Potter, along with "CONSTANT VIGILANCE!!!" - "You've GOT to KNOW!"
