Yeah, all of this feels a lot like propaganda, but it's hard to tell. It's just odd that people are aware enough to download this app, but don't know any basic facts about their own country.

Not to mention a lot of the examples are also just more misinformation. Like the example about price of food, thats a lot more complicated comparison than just dollars spent.

Yeah ever since this started I have felt like it's just a bunch of bots pushing an agenda... And people of course are falling for it... Like people are only downloading it to see why people would... Because "people" the bots are pushing it hard...

The whole thing makes no sense..
