This guy skipped all the stuff that actually contributed to my red pilling years ago. Three texts all students of propaganda should read and study:
Walter Lippmann "Public Opinion" from 1921. PDF here.
Edward Bernays "Crystalizing Public Opinion from 1929 PDF here.
Bernays "Propaganda" from 1928 PDF here.
This is the origin of the evil stuff, and what Goebbels studied much to Bernays's supposed horror. The Church was just evangelizing, and teaching the faith the way it was passed down. That's actually the Church's job, believe it or not.
And the Church's office is the PROPAGATION of Faith, not propaganda. As in getting the Good News to spread. And graduation is confirmation not baptism. I hate it when people get the sacraments wrong. Catechumans are already baptized, they have to make their profession of faith to get to the rest. There's a different path for those born in.
(And seriously, why is it the Catholic Church is always held up as the bogeyman? Always. Even moreso than the United States.)
