Nevertheless, this is quite harmless to those who understand it.

Let's view:

Melanie Anne Phillips, posted:

Introduction to Propaganda.
Propaganda, n. 1. any organization or movement working for the propagation of particular ideas, doctrines, practices, etc. 2. the ideas, doctrines, practices, etc. spread in this way. (Webster’s New Twentieth Century Dictionary)

Propaganda: 3. a storyforming/storytelling technique used to impact an audience in specific ways, often employed to instigate deliberation and/or action. (Dramatica)

The Basics of Propaganda.

Propaganda and Symbols.

Shock as Propaganda.

Awareness as Propaganda.

Conditioning as Propaganda.
