ABC News Isn't Propaganda
... believes ABC News is "woke communist propaganda"
Child: Dad, this is all woke communist propaganda! Why are they always talking about feelings and fairness? It's a load of rubbish!
Parent: What the hell, kid? Where did you even learn that crap? You're five. You should be watching cartoons, not throwing around terms you don't understand.
Child: I heard it from Uncle Steve. He said the ABC is brainwashing us with all this equality and green stuff. It’s making everyone weak and stupid.
Parent: Oh, for fuck's sake. Listen, Uncle Steve is full of shit. ABC News is just reporting on what's happening in the world. They cover a lot of issues, and yes, that includes fairness and the environment because, guess what? Those things actually matter.
Child: But they keep talking about climate change and how we need to share everything. That’s what communists do, right?
Parent: No, you little dipshit. Communists are about government control of everything. Talking about climate change is about not burning the bloody planet to a crisp. And sharing is just about not being a selfish prick. There’s a big difference.
Child: But why should I care about what happens to the planet? I'm just a kid.
Parent: Because if we fuck it up now, there won’t be much left for you to enjoy when you grow up. Do you want to live in a world where you can't breathe properly because the air's so polluted, or where there's no water because we’ve screwed up all the natural resources?
Child: That sounds bad... but why do they make such a big deal about feelings?
Parent: Because, believe it or not, people’s feelings are part of what makes us human. Understanding each other helps us not act like total dicks. It’s called empathy, and it makes the world a better place.
Child: So, it's not really propaganda?
Parent: No, it's not. It's about being informed and trying to make things better for everyone. Now, how about we switch to something more age-appropriate, like Peppa Pig, and let’s leave the political analysis for when you’re not, you know, five years old.
Child: Okay, Dad. But Uncle Steve is still wrong, right?
Parent: Bloody right he is. Now, let's get you some ice cream and watch something fun.
