Godwin's Law and you're done.

But baring that, how do you know which side is propaganda? Is it FOX/CNN/MSNBC or is it Newsmax/DailyWire/NYPost/Blaze/Crowder? Which side is the propaganda and which is the capitol T Truth?



Well, there are facts which are either hard to argue or everybody is agreeing upon, like the public presentations of politicians. Given those facts, sometimes - not always - it's a matter of values to choose sides.

It's not always easy, yes. But still critical thinking goes a long way.

Godwin's Law can be used as a tool to suppress valid comparisons. Don't fall for that.
