The spreading of ideas,
information, or rumor for the purpose of helping or injuring an institution, a cause, or a person. The
information doesn’t have to be false. It is falsely believed that education creates immunity to propaganda; a rational, skeptical outlook.
In fact, it does just the reverse. It creates in us a
disposition to settle for fancy words and high-sounding slogans instead of results, which means that the educated are often more susceptible to propaganda than the common man.
