Definitions of Propaganda techniques
====Plain folks: Making the leader seem ordinary increases trust and credibility. They are just like you!====

====Testimonial: The testimony of an independent person is seen as more trustworthy. Beyonce uses "this" product.====

====Name-calling: Denigrating opponents. What a creep!====

====Bandwagon: Pump up the value of 'joining the party'. Everybody is using this product or jumping off the James River Bridge!====

====Glittering generalities: Use power words to evoke emotions. This one is great! This one is terrible!====

====Card-stacking: Build a highly-biased case for your position. Here are the "facts" that I want you to hear.====
