    Just spotted the article on Slovenian newspaper Finance where they interviewed Americans living in Slovenia who they'll vote fore. All except one voted for Kerry, the one for Badnarick. http://www.finance-on.net/show.php?id=102695[^] Such are the effects of brainwashing and propaganda in Europe (but that does not exist in Europe, of course!) I would really like to see how other Americans living in Europe will vote. Now if there's no propaganda I would expect them to divide pretty much as people living in America. But something tells me this won't be the case - and the lefties will have another excuse and explanation for this fact. Tomaz

      Why don't you simply post your formula, instead of spamming the soapbox with nearly identical anti-EU-propaganda-threads? Your formula is: if(person.opinion != me.opinion){ beSure("person has been influenced by propaganda"); }

        Of course. If, for example, people living in Germany have 99% similar views of some issue it couldn't possible be the effect of propaganda. Which propaganda? For example the propaganda documented article by article for months and years (there's an archive on the right!) here http://medienkritik.typepad.com/[^] Sorry for being a traitor but I can't pretend this is normal. Germans and people living in Germany (and other states) never 99% agree on issues. This is not normal. Something influenced them strongly. This http://medienkritik.typepad.com/[^] influenced them. 50 years ago we called this propaganda. Now some prefer calling it "an art", "intellectual journalism", etc. But it is still built on the same principles that another European, dr. Joseph Goebbels set forward a long time ago. Tomaz

              You've really got to stop listening to this opinion polls. I don't know anybody who answers these things truthly. I refer you to the surprise result of the UK 1992 General Election. Michael CP Blog [^]

                Well all the mock votes we've had here in South Africa have shown Kerry winning with huge margin. Everyone knows us people in Africa have Anti-Propoganda 2004++ Enterpise Architect Edition (SP2) installed... :rolleyes:

                    Oh, I see, you're running out of arguments. The moment people don't know what to answer, is often the moment they change the topic to "Nazi Germany".

                      It's not propaganda, it's we threatened each of them to be put into "enemy combattants aggregation centres" if Bush gets reelected. :mad: really, where are you living. Maybe someone living in Europe has other influences than someone stuck in a midwest trailer farm. Or maybe, just maybe, they are less influenced by the Shrub's propaganda? Oh wait, this can't be. Only commies use propaganda. The Shrub couldn't even spell this nasty word.

                              Actually I'm just naming something for what it is. Propaganda. And I would not bother doing it if in Europe we would have balance of news sources like in the US. They have newspapers and TV stations that do propaganda. But they have TWO SIDES. Then the reader would have a choice. In Europe, however, he has no choice. It is ONE SIDED. Without letting the other side to speak. Our news are one huge Michael Moore movies. And the very predictable and logical result is that great majority of people think in exactly the same ways.

                                  Imagine a newspaper system that publishes news from both sides. For every pro-Bush article, one anti-Bush article is published. Now, imagine a blogger who sorts the newspaper articles. He tries to translate the anti-Bush articles, and throws away all other articles. Would his blog be much different from the one you linked here? Conclusion: One blog says NOTHING. It can be stupid propaganda against specific papers.

                                    The main difference is that our reporting is SINGLE SIDED. We keep monologues, we talk about US without Americans, we criticize Reps without giving them opportunity to tell their story. And reporting across the Atlantic is balanced. In US you have Democratic and Republican newspapers. For example you know what to expect, when something is written in NYT. And that allows competition of ideas which is lacking in Europe. Our reporting is completely single sided and in addition it is radical. "Michael Moore" radical. And since public opinion commonly mirrors media coverage you can guess who is influenced by propaganda and who has more balanced reporting. Seek for diversity of opinions as an indicator. Tomaz

Oh my god!, you're right, surely the voters didn't have a mind of their own, they must have been brainwashed by the evil leftists secretly ruling Europe. I suggest we concentrate them in camps, where they can be guided to the correct kind of thinking, after a couple of years in a quiet cell in Siberia or Guantanamo, they may have had time to consider what's best for them and their glorious country.

                                          Just spotted the article on Slovenian newspaper Finance where they interviewed Americans living in Slovenia who they'll vote fore. All except one voted for Kerry, the one for Badnarick. http://www.finance-on.net/show.php?id=102695[^] Such are the effects of brainwashing and propaganda in Europe (but that does not exist in Europe, of course!) I would really like to see how other Americans living in Europe will vote. Now if there's no propaganda I would expect them to divide pretty much as people living in America. But something tells me this won't be the case - and the lefties will have another excuse and explanation for this fact. Tomaz
