Making people feel they feel naturally
·
Students of the academy
of a certain school of thought lead a strict regimented life __essential for
stifling independent thinking__ and taught to perceive life in the prescribed
colors. Students of such academy see their scholars the only true light and
understandably feel electrified by their commands. Players having acknowledged
a man as a coach can feel invigorated by his pep talk. Man having been
recognized as a leader can have the intended effects from his harangue. Words
are used to make audience feel the lash of language, language is
used for yanking on the easy emotion; language is the simply the means
to stimulate already constructed images and just to make people feel strongly
in a way they are already feeling so.
Subtle propaganda is much more
difficult. Language is selected to win the trust of audience so that they do
not feel offended, goaded or pushed in a certain direction. Information and
evidence those are the details to prove point are selected to construct a
context so that audience have the limited room for maneuvering and reach the
feelings they believe they have reached independently; conclusion then appear
the logical outcome and the feeling they have they feel they have
naturally.
Points
to ponder
·
All humans are frail,
valiant ones have succeeded to have a bit thicker gloss of rationality;
therefore, it cannot be easily breached to uncover their apprehensions and
fears.
Impersonal learning
·
Learning from modern
gadget cannot develop the love for knowledge. Impersonal learning is learning
from recorded lectures or solved exercise and can help one to have knowledge
adequate to the needs of an exam. Two individuals work and spend time together
to have camaraderie that is essential for rapport between a teacher and a
student. This chemistry is essential for two individuals not bound by
instinctive bonds as student can have learning for learning sake only when a teacher
becomes his inspiration and thus a powerful channel for knowledge. Knowledge
protégé acquires from mentor nudges him to capitalize on his endowments for
knowledge; knowledge then ceases to be the means and become the ends it itself.
Practical philosopher Vs ideal one
·
Practical philosopher
is different from recluse philosopher. Practical philosopher has been ensnared
in the problems of life; borne the brunt of misfortune, and has been on the
receiving end of problems. Practical philosopher constructs theoretically ideal
states, but theory of his is based on experience, thus, his constructs may have
been less elegant, they are empirically sound; therefore translation of his
ideal state is possible, but ideal state idealistic creates is only a dream
world.
Propaganda through the false analogy
·
‘Anyone who has owned
a car knows that saving money in the short run by skimping on relatively minor
repairs and routine maintenance will prove very costly in the long run.
However, this basic truth is often forgotten by those who call for reduced
government spending on defense.’ (This is a false analogy because this is
essentially required minimum spending on a car. It could be a right analogy if
there were no extravagant spending on defense; if it is more spending than
required, it must be reduced)
Fallacy
·
‘Once a duckling has identified a
parents; the instinctive bond becomes a power full channel for additional
learning since by mimicking the parent, the duckling can acquire further
information that is not genetically transmitted.’ (Parents have simply developed
genetically transmitted information. One can acquire further information of only
genetically transmitted information.)
Political marketing through language
·
For damage control,
political marketing consultant emphasizes people to focus on the intent and
assumptions of a speaker because language cannot be objective and words have no
meaning in themselves. For damaging opponent, political marketing consultant
applies the tenacious character of value connotation to make bad associations
with words. The use of value connation results in denotation becoming
prejudicial. The character of subjective value connotation makes the words and
messages the aspect of deception, and consequently people no longer judge it by
weight of evidence or legitimate argumentation.
Format: Leader/Party-Information Format
Campaign: 1990
Newspaper: Jung
From: PPP/Asif
Zardari
Ad: Leader/party
ad
Ad N: 7
Analysis:
The
direct relationship between a party and human personality defines the primary
framework of the personalized ad. As in this ad person code takes on an
importance and Asif Zardari explicitly and directly interprets his relationship
to the party:
‘When I was going to tie
matrimonial ties to Bhutto families, I was fully alive to hazards; but I never
forgot that though odyssey was fraught with perils and agony, but ennobling and
dignifying too.
Today,
after being incarcerated I feel throbbing of ineffable joy; the joy of being a
part of crusade committed to sacrifice everything at the altar of democracy.
Under the leadership of Benazir the tide of people will overwhelm the enemies
of democracy’ Pride of being part of party and pride of being subjugated to
tyranny are important humanizing dimensions of the interpretation of this ad.
Asif Zardari is a typical representative of PPP as the husband of its
chairperson and acting as a testifier and embodiment of the sufferings one
bears once gets associated with Bhutto family.
At
denotative level ads simply tells that Asif Zaradri is proud of being
persecuted as a part of Bhutto’s family which epitomizes the struggle for
democracy; but at connotative level it tells much more: Asif Ali Zardari is
victim of vendetta and witch hunt; his arrest has nothing to do with the
corruption charges levied against him, rather no mentioning of them signifies
subtly that blatant fictitiousness make them too significant to mention; and
the underlying reason for his arrest by the enemy of democracy is due to his
association with Bhutto’s family.
