Question

Exit

A political candidate gives a speech to a group of veterans. She wears a blue suit, a white blouse, and a red scarf. She uses the words "our proud flag," "freedom," "liberty," and "honorable service" multiple times.

What propaganda technique is the politician using?

Answer 1

this propaganda technique is best identified as glittering generalities; the political candidate is using colors to evoke images of the flag, which is associated with america and, therefore, patriotism. she's also emotionally appealing by using the words that carry a strong connotation in our country--"freedom" and "liberty" specifically--because people automatically believe them to be positive and will think of her highly even if she's offered no evidence of truly caring about the freedom or liberty of people.
