RE: The Handmaid's Tale of Propaganda

Ah I didn't know the first season covered the whole book until way after I'd seen it...I kept hoping to read more, you know, find stuff for the new series but nope.

. And clearly we've got a huge population that doesn't agree with this agenda

Yes, but that's a problem, I think. Not that they don't agree (Who in their right mind would?), but that people are forced to adhere to an agenda, you have to choose a party, support someone. When really, nobody deserves to be supported.. We're trying to find the closest thing to what we want, but none is close enough, in my opinion, and so we make compromises.

Right. And it's the fact that everyone in the media portrays the world through these polarized lenses, until people are afraid to question the narrative for fear of being considered "crazy." It just drives genuine debate underground, because we're afraid to speak our mind.
