You didn't answer the question, I am not sure how is you reply relevant at all tbh

What does the word propaganda, mean to you? Information that you don't agree with?

Merriam-Webster reads that the definition of propaganda is ideas, facts, or allegations spread deliberately to further one's cause or to damage an opposing cause.

Russia "attempting to mask communications that are anti-Ukraine and pro-Russia" seems like it fits the textbook definition of propaganda to me. Not sure if you know how to use a dictionary, though - seems like it might be out of your wheelhouse.

@icmpecho@lemmy.ml

I asked what it means to the individual, not a dictionary definition But that's OK, it proves my point.

It's typical of the Ukrainian propagandists, smear the messenger and not answer relevant questions posed. I don't understand why thinking people accept their behaviour and question why they try to shout down anything intelligent regarding their precious Ukraine.

Oh believe me, I am familiar with that, more so than anybody else :(
