After exploring the depths of propaganda in our previous episode, this episode takes a brief look at some of the groundwork laid before we encounter propaganda proper.

There are many false prophets who use propaganda, but in this episode we take a look at the beast of revelation and discuss how the institutionalized, wayward church/religion is often the false prophet for empire. As a Christian, I think it's vital to uncover how Christianity has been a false prophet throughout history so we can repent and avoid being the false prophet again.

This episode serves several purposes: 1) Recap and cement what we've learned, 2) Explain my research rationale and sources, and 3) Provide listeners with recommendations to extend your studies on propaganda.

We delve into our first area of propaganda by looking at its implementation on the smallest scale - in personal relationships. We discuss how abusers manipulate their victims and onlookers using the principles of propaganda we addressed at the beginning of the season.
