How Propaganda Influences Me



Propaganda impacts my social and personal choices because I control the entire society with the use of propaganda. My personal choice is to persuade the citizens of Oceania that I am all that they have, all that they will have, and that the way they are living now is as good as it gets. I’m influenced by propaganda because it gives me more authority as the people have no choice to give into it as they do not remember past history. Propaganda is important because it is a very powerful weapon as it controls the minds of the citizens. An example of propaganda that I use is “Big Brother is Watching You” which gives the people a sense of protection and makes them desire to worship me even more. The propaganda techniques the party uses allows me to control and install fear into the people which ultimately gives me power. I’m influenced to produce more propaganda for the intended audience of Oceania in order to create a society that I rule over. As I see how people react to the “truth” that the party feeds them, I realize how much leadership we have over them and how we can use it to our advantage to maintain our sculpted society through propaganda techniques.
