Kisses from Kenya Episode 31: Propaganda in the Age of Social Media

Send us Fan Mail **EPISODE 31: Propaganda in the Age of Social Media** Modern propaganda no longer needs a podium. It has cable news, social media algorithms, political influencers, and audiences isolated enough to mistake repetition for truth. How do once-unthinkable ideas become acceptable—and who benefits when they do? Vuyanzi and Brendan follow that question into media manipulation, political persuasion, and the stories people willingly swallow. Dating expectations, counterfeit alcohol in Kenya, questionable sausages, and joy on Mount Kenya also find their way into the conversation. Press play. It will make sense eventually. **Register to vote and more at** VoteFromAbroad.org Support the show **About the show** Kisses from Kenya is a social and cultural podcast produced by Democrats Abroad Kenya.
