Most propaganda is aimed at neurotypical wiring. We are out of tune with it, that gives us a measure of protection.
It’s one of the worries I have with AI. While I think we are more protected from propaganda than most (since we constantly want to poke at the crack in a story), we are not immune. It’s perfectly possible to shape it to effect us. They just haven’t bothered, since we are a small target. AI makes that a lot easier to do, so we will see more of it.
considering how certain people seem to get to the point of psychosis from llm usage, i dread the day the corporations start utilizing this fully. it would probably be possible to completely brainwash someone vulnerable to do ANYTHING with llm as long as they are receptive to it.
