Using Boost for Lemmy, I got an obvious political ad from the right asking to sign a petition to scrap the gun “ban” in Canada (it’s a registry not a ban).
Now I understand this is an ad but I don’t appreciate having propaganda from the right injected into my browsing on lemmy. Have better ads, or let us report them.
Its not propaganda if its not made by a government
The term originated in religion, not government. And it has no definition that limits it to government creation. It’s not even limited to politics.
Companies basically own the government these days. Their goal is to lobby the government.
