An individual advertisement is often called an "ad" or an "advert" for convenience.

But if all is in fact , what do we call an individual piece of propaganda? Should we call it a "prop" or a "propa"?

As in, "Aw, jeez, not another Coke prop." Or, "A propa only five minutes into the show? Fuck this."

@starbreaker

I think 'agan' is a good option because it sounds like 'again'

as in "propaganda AGAIN?!"

(this is not a serious answer)

@a_breakin_glass @starbreaker

kinda but maybe 'propga' would be better? I don't know

honestly -- I've spent the past week wondering if words even matter, so I'm probably not the right person to suggest answers, much less critique them

more and more I think people are like weather

they just happen how they're going to happen -_-

@sydneyfalk @a_breakin_glass Being a writer, I'm kinda fucked if words don't matter - and not in the happy, fun way.

Well, in the sense of 'matter' I'm using, I am too -- but basically only in the sense that I'm producing entertainment sans any other impact.

I'm WAY more fucked if words don't matter because I'm a visibly queer mental defective and all -- because at this point if the Vast Bulk Majority of people can't be convinced not to start rounding up undesirables, well, it's gonna end up happening at this rate. :/

The assholes run the world. :(
