docuganda

A film that uses documentary style to spread propaganda. Usually, docuganda will set out a premise and then attack any skeptics, rather than actually attempt to prove the case. The effect is that you either agree with the premise or you look like a fool. The word was specifically coined to refer to UFO "documentaries," such as "In Search Of," which provide anecdotal evidence for a phenomenon, draw a conclusion based on that evidence, and then attack any possible competing conclusions.

Everybody said that documentary was amazing and that it really opened their eyes. When I watched it, I was shocked by how manipulative it was. It was not a documentary; it was docuganda.

Duganda

A land one travels to when laying an immense, unconscionably steamy dugan. Dissimilar to the country of Uganda in the sense that it is not a physical location - but rather a state of mind, but similar in the sense that if you go there - you must absolutely be prepared for what lies ahead.

Guy 1: WHAT!? No, NO! You ate 3 steaks, a can of pinto beans, a cheesy gordita crunch and 2 ahi tuna rolls in the last 4 hours!
Guy 2: (Grimly, solemly) Yes, it's true. I have made the necessary preparations. Next stop, DUGANDA!
