Comparison of DP's Pre-Election Propaganda and Post-Election Stance

When it comes to the struggle for power, political parties nearly always depend on propaganda as the main strategy to accomplish their aims and acquire public support. This is because propaganda is one of the most effective methods to communicate with large groups of people. When seen through this lens, the statements made by the leaders of political parties or members of such parties might be construed as a tactic used during disagreements inside the party. Therefore, it is a major error to presume that remarks made during political campaigns truly reflect the candidates' ideas because of the inherent subjectivity of the process. Even the idea that these words of the leaders reflect their true thoughts is incomprehensible at the moment; however, based on these comments, it comes to mind that the public may have certain expectations from the politician, or that the politician may be using these words as part of a propaganda campaign to wear out his opponent and make the electorate look like it does not matter to him. because, because of these statements, the public may have developed certain expectations about the politician. These two sides are equally essential for one to take into consideration. A political leader who is intent on convincing people to back his cause may even be ready to make a promise in which he does not personally believe if he thinks that doing so would aid him in achieving his goal of winning people over to his side. This is one of the fundamental factors that contributes to the prevalent view that most of the public has that politicians are not honest. People have this impression because politicians make promises to get votes that they are unable to follow, which is the fundamental reason people have this feeling. This is the fundamental justification that individuals have for holding onto this viewpoint. Because of this, it is helpful to think of the statements made by political party leaders or orators at the rally as being part of a propaganda war that is being fought for the aim of reaching power. It would be more correct to evaluate the statements and actions taken during the election campaign based on the axis of propaganda as opposed to good and wrong. Another subject of research is the notion that it is easier to manipulate people's emotions when they believe that they are being manipulated by propaganda rather than good and wrong.
