Propaganda
is used to propagate, spread, one's own agenda. It can be used by
religions, politicians, American advertising and war. Propaganda is US
vs THEM to "spread the gospel", to go viral.
Beware of BIG LIES and repetition. Hitler would say a slogan 3 times, which was a bizarre lie, and people came to BELIEVE him. Ivana Trump said of her husband as they were getting divorced, that he studied Hitler's speeches. Propaganda appeals to the emotions to influence the masses.
Anyone
who repetitively invokes FEAR, whether or not they are an authority
figure by being MEAN, or HARSH may be using propaganda tactics. Doctors
and therapists plant seeds of doubt in your subconscious, especially
with the diagnosis of cancer or marital problems. People that
constantly tell you what you should do want you to SUBMIT, OBEY, and
follow their orders. It usually is to serve their AGENDA and not in your
best interests.
