Break the Fake: Spotting hate propaganda

What do we mean by propaganda?

Propaganda tries to get you to believe in an idea or to feel a certain way.
Propaganda convinces you by provoking your emotions instead of making a logical argument.

Not all propaganda is bad! It can inspire positive emotions like love, pride and empathy. It can persuade us to do things like putting on seatbelts or brushing our teeth.

Hate propaganda is different: it tries to make us fear and distrust another group of people.
