agitprop

The intentional, vigorous promulgation of ideas. This term originated in Soviet Russia where it referred to popular media, such as literature, plays, pamphlets, films, and other art forms, with an explicitly political message in favor of communism.

The mainstream media uses agitprop to control the narrative over the people.

agitprop

A portmanteau pairing of the words “agitation” and “propaganda,” usually used to describe media productions (posters, books, movies, music, etc.) designed to instill pro-system thought patterns into those who consume them.

In turn, these implanted thoughts lead to actions that in some way bolster or directly advance official state policies. Agitprop runs a gauntlet, ranging from the crude propaganda posters of the former Soviet Union to today’s highly-polished MTV fare.

Agitprop can be pathos (emotion) based, logos-heavy, (logic) or even a combination of both. It works both the high and the low ground. Regardless of the form it takes, the ultimate goal of agitprop is the production of pro-state thought and action.

After having blasted his eyeballs with countless hours of Fox News television agitprop, Joe Sixpack was ready to head to the nearest Army recruiting office and sign up to fight “islamo-fascists.”

agitprop

Another bullshit term used by anti-American Americans, the supposed propaganda that's everywhere, due to the kkkorporate skum and THE MAN, all bogeymen created by stupid hippies.

Hippy-tard: THE MAN is keeping us down with AGITPROP.
Normal person: Oh, go fuck yourself.
