Haley Robson, a survivor of Jeffrey Epstein's abuse, voted for President Donald Trump in the past but is now calling for him to be impeached over the handling of the Epstein files.
Yeah they do. Its on the person to verify them. The only time they dont is when the individual decides for themselves to ignore the facts. Its people choosing to hold onto thier own prejudices and assumptions rather than accepting the truth for what it is. This is what propoganda depends on, stereotypes, assumptions, and a lazy mind unwilling to challenge itself.
That’s just not borne out by statistical evidence. Study after study (not to mention my own experience) disprove this idea.

Sure, but relying on that to help assumes that the propagandists haven’t captured sources of verification, or convinced victims that they’re unreliable.

That’s literally what propaganda does to someone. It seems like you’re thinking of just standard misinformation. Propaganda is a whole different thing; it has been intentionally crafted by very intelligent people who have been paid a lot of money to make you believe what they want you to believe. It’s not just a choice someone makes, it’s a virus that they’re infected with.

Your mind isn’t magically immune to propaganda, either. You likely have a stereotype of conservative people as dumb and uncurious, for instance (and, to be sure, many are), but in reality many are quite clever; that intelligence is just turned toward selfishness, or some other warped view of reality.
A lot of propaganda works on that exact kind of binary, black and white view that dehumanizes other people. Propagandists know that you can be convinced to act more easily if you can first be convinced that others are fundamentally worse than you in some inherent way.
This is what I mean about “intentionally crafted.” Propagandists have been honing enough messages that they can likely tailor one to you. The only way you can escape one is if you (1) know it’s happening, and (2) are willing to think about it critically and with nuance. I’m probably being targeted by propaganda right now without realizing it.
and a lazy mind unwilling to challenge itself.
The mental gymnastics required to believe some of the things that propagandized people accept actually require more mental work, not less. You can call it cult programming, or even mind control, but it’s not laziness.
No statistics show people dont want to listen to thing they dont want to hear. The flat earth Final Experimemt proved this. Even in the face of witnesses and videos people CHOSE to ignore the truth. It had nothing to do with the facts presented and everything to do with their lazy weak minds. Truth doesnt come from and agency, it cant be captured. Truth comes from the universe around us verified by process and prediction. The sun will always circle the south pole no matter what some agency or people say. Its on the observer to observe and accept the truth.
Your first problem there is assumeing there is ever a time when your not being exposed to some form of propoganda. EVERYTHING another human tells you is a form of propoganda, organized around their own personal beliefs. Question everything but also be willing to accept the truth of your question when the universe presents it.

You can believe that if you like, but you’re kind of undercutting your own argument by specifically disagreeing with the facts here.
You presented no facts
Here’s one. Here’s another. Here’s a study that’s cited a lot. Here’s a Wikipedia article about a 75-year-old study.
But since I’ve read those articles and studies, I don’t expect you to change your mind.
