Through the use of emotional manipulation one can create a general conviction regarding the necessity for action.
The great majority of a nation being feminine in its perception and character, their thoughts and actions are ruled by their primary emotions and not
reasoning.
(People are always extremist in their emotions.)
Emotions are not complex but simple and consistent. They have only negative and positive notions; right and wrong, love and hate, true or false.
Our primary emotions are well established:
* Fear ~ Love
* Sadness ~ Joy
* Anger ~ Surprise
Understanding and manipulating the emotions of a majority is primitive. During a struggle for existence, propaganda is an essential tool for the
survival of any organized body.
For political parties the use of propaganda is considered a weapon of the first degree and a matter of public policy. Such a policy of polarization
secures surprising and extraordinary results that no other method can achieve.
For propaganda to be effective, it is important to demonize the opposition in order to blockade the infiltration of opposing views. The stronger the
demonization of the opponent becomes the stronger their beliefs are justified.
At first propaganda, appears to be foolish in its assertiveness and afterwords disturbing, but eventually it is accepted as truth.
