Unfortunately, I believe you're 100% correct as that's basically rule number 1 in this list of propaganda principles.
The Nine Principles of Propaganda 1. LIE BIG Big lies work better than small lies because the masses won't believe that anyone would lie “about that.” 2. FOCUS Don't make it complicated, ignore history, keep it simple for simple minds. 3. REPEAT People cannot tell the difference between facts and familiarity. The same words repeated over and over will become true in their minds. 4. BLAME never Credit the other side, always blame, debase, defame, and dehumanize. 5. PROVOKE Outrage, fear, and resentment are more powerful than reason, logic, or facts. 6. CRISIS Issues must be life or death, good vs evil, love vs hate, us vs them. Urgency defeats objection. 7. EMOTION A person might question facts, but they will never question their own feelings. Go emotional. 8. PANDER Praise allies generously, demonize all who disagree as having bad intentions or non-expert. 9. NO LIMIT The victor's morality won't be questioned. Morality is for losers.

Of course some media is trying to play it off like she was joking 🙄
A picture of Charlize Theron about a headline reading, "Charlize Theron jokes Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez wedding guests 'suck'" The article was published one day ago on E! Online.

It's been several days since I watched "The Life List" on Netflix, and I am still extremely annoyed about this drawing of, purportedly, Moby Dick.
Simple line drawing of a closed book with the title Moby Dick and a humpback whale drawn as if it were jumping out of, or breaching, the cover of the book.

Happy Furry Friends Friday from Poe! 🐾🩷
Tricolored dog, primary color black, on a bed with galaxy sheets and a brown blanket. The dog, Poe, is lying down, head up, facing the camera. His mouth is open. His tail is slightly blurred because he is wagging it. He is happy. Close-up of a tricolored dog, primary color black, lying on his side on a bed. The dog, Poe, is has his head up, facing the camera.

I still think about Michael Sheen's Prodigal Son cardigan at least three times a week.
In a still from the show Prodigal Son, Michael Sheen is sitting in a chair wooden, hands clasped between his knees. He is wearing a very comfy-looking beige cardigan, open in the front, over what looks like a set of white scrubs. His hair is grey. He has a beard and is grinning.
