For an exercise in intellectual honesty …

Examine the advertising or common argumentation in favor of your favorite product, ideology, politician, etc. for examples of the dishonest techniques presented here.

Is it "OK" to use dishonest "propaganda" techniques to support something of which you approve?

Re: post #24 — Good point, North Mountain.

Propaganda is like any other weapon - Its use for good or ill is up to the wielder.

'Make America Great Again' is a good example of nos. 18, 19, 21, 39, 42, 49, and 50.
