Philosophy teaches us to feel uncertain about the things which seem to us self-evident.
Propaganda, on the other hand, teaches us to accept as self- evident matters about which it
would be reasonable to suspend our judgement or to feel doubt. The propagandist must
therefore be consistently dogmatic. All his statements are made without qualification. There are
no greys in his picture of the world; everything is either diabolically black or celestially white.
He must never admit that he may be wrong or that people with a different point of view might
be even partially right. Opponents ought to be argued with; they should be attacked, shouted
down, or if they become too much of a nuisance, liquidated.
4.The distinction between philosophy and propaganda is
a) self-evident matters are readily refused by the propagandist but not by the philosopher.
b) philosophy stimulates people to give any matter a-second thought prior to accepting it as
true, whereas propaganda teaches us to accept even plausible matters.
