Step-by-step explanation:

CUZ IT ANIT NO DANG NAME-CALLING

Answer 2

To answer this, let's take into consideration the seven types of propaganda we could use to categorize this sentence.

- Glittering Generalities (praising and glorifying)
- Name calling (self-explanatory)
- Testimonial (using accounts of relatable people)
- Plain folks (appeals to regular people and their values)
- Bandwagon (appeals to people's want of being part of a group)
- Transfer (helps the audience imagine themselves as part of the picture)
- Card-stacking (making it too good to be true, often by manipulation)

Because this statement uses names that can be considered offensive and derogatory, this would be an example of name-calling propaganda.
