Propaganda can be used in a variety of ways to influence people’s views on a particular ethnic group or group, some of which can lead to prejudice or hostility: 1. **Stereotype reinforcement**: Using media and social platforms to spread stereotypes about a particular group and perpetuate these characteristics by repeatedly emphasizing them. 2. **Negative stories and fake news**: Spreading negative stories or false information about a particular group to induce fear and distrust. 3. **Biased reporting**: Selectively reporting negative behaviors or events of the group while ignoring positive contributions to shape prejudice. 4. **Verbal cues and symbols**: Using specific words, symbols, and metaphors to make people subconsciously associate a group with negative situations. 5. **Historical and cultural distortion**: Deliberately distorting historical facts or cultural background to make a particular group appear alien and untrustworthy. 6. **Celebrity effect**: Using the words of public figures or opinion leaders to influence public opinion, even if these words lack factual support. 7. **Hostile targeting**: Using a group as a scapegoat for social or economic problems and emphasizing that they are the opposite of "us." To avoid the bias and hostility that these tactics can generate, it is necessary to maintain critical thinking, diversify sources of information, and promote inclusion and understanding.
