Is it inaccurate to say Biden/Garland slow rolled arresting Trump?
Propaganda doesn't have to be inaccurate to be propaganda.
All it needs to do is fulfill an ulterior intent
The old Uncle Sam 'I want you' posters weren't even factual claims but they certainly were propaganda that led to many people signing up that would have otherwise lived.
So facts are propaganda now. Got it.
Actually yes. Something can be both true and shown in a biased or misleading way.

The dictionary proving me wrong is propaganda! /s
Fair enough, however.
It just has to disagree with your worldview.
Incorrect, there's plenty of propaganda that agrees with my worldview, and that's the most insidious and most important to be vigilant against.
Why are you putting words into my mouth? Scared of a conversation?
I'm not. I'm outright saying that you dismiss anything that disagrees with you as propaganda.
