It has become something of a parlor trick to analyze propaganda. Serious  analysis of the battle for hearts and minds has become a hobby for  internet sleuths and gotcha journalists. In a sense, the hunt to  understand and explain propaganda has become propaganda itself. This  idea of brainwashing has heavily influenced the American psyche, leading  to vast conspiracy theories about government and business takeovers  that never come to fruition. This makes it easy to claim that people are  in some way mentally forced to take certain actions. This misses the  point. The reality is that most people have already decided to hate  certain groups before propaganda ever is initiated. This idea that one  person could somehow make a large group of people racist or sexist is  entirely new, and was invented by scam artists like alex jones and bill  cooper, who are themselves propagandists! We can already discount any  serious analysis of propaganda if it is a propagandist who is doing the  analysis, which, with the current state of the internet, is pretty much  all you'll find. These morons wave degrees or certifications about and  state that they are more qualified to analyze propaganda than the  people, mostly political theorists and behaviorists, who are actually  trained to do it. Instead of offering you a fun story or useless archaic  examples of propaganda, which is what you will find youtube for the  most part, I read from the book written on propaganda by Jaques ellul.  Though, largely forgotten, and relegated to of dusty bookshelves,  Ellul's understanding of propaganda transcends the usual "brainwashing"  focused analysis. Ellul instead focuses on political, social and  economic realities that are programmed into the system we live in. He  contests that propaganda begins not with fake news, but with a real  concern in society that the government has failed to address. Leaders  then use propaganda to stoke already volatile tensions that existed  before the propagandist was ever born. In other words, people are not  brainwashed, but presented with solutions that make them feel better  emotionally, not in reality. When a person desires an answer, any  confident individual can provide them with one that sounds right, not  because it is correct, but because they exude confidence.
