When did I say there was no dramatic conflict in truly effective propaganda?

Here is where you said it, back in post #10:

But judge it as a movie, not as a pro-euthanasia screed, because if it were that there would be no drama in the decision--if he's doing something the movie's point of view says is a good, right thing, why is it shown as a dramatic decision?
Perhaps you didn't mean what you said, but that is in fact what you said, not some "straw man" I concocted to put down a distinguished film critic like yourself.

Uh, where did I say there was no dramatic conflict in truly effective propaganda?

You can keep up the snide comments all you want, but where did I say it? I didn't.

READ what I wrote:"not as a pro-euthanasia screed, because if it were that there would be no drama IN THE DECISION."

That does not say there is no drama in propaganda. It says if it were propaganda there would be no drama in this one particular MOMENT.

You really, really should read what I wrote, not what you wish I wrote so you could make your silly point. You look like an idiot because you keep insisting I said something I never said, and the proof is right there. I was talking about the drama in one point of the whole script. Never said there was no drama in propaganda.

Stick to whatever it is you can do well, 'cuz it sure ain't debating. Or film.
