Bharatiya Janata Yuva Morcha (BJYM) national secretary Tejinder Pall Singh Bagga on Monday made a sensational claim, saying killed Sikh separatist Hardeep Singh Nijjar was gay and that Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau used to like him.

His statement comes amid a diplomatic standoff between India and Canada that ensued after Trudeau alleged the Indian government was involved in Nijjar's killing. India has asked Canada to provide proof to back the allegations but none have come yet.

Propaganda is not there to make you agree with it, it is there to tell you that you are powerless against it

that's interesting. i'd wager propaganda only works that way when it's winning. but that's difficult to gauge these days. propaganda is more segmented and social media is more "federated". hell, trump's social bs exists via mastodon.
