Your inculcation into the belief that there are two sides is all I need to know to tell me that explaining propaganda to you is futile.

Well, that and the fact that you posted it as legitimate information.

Polls like these are published to keep the sheople fighting amongst themselves over which Muslims are good and which Muslims are bad, and making sure we remain aware of them and fearful and hateful of them.

The establishment has to have that in order to keep the useful idiots engaged in their agenda in the Middle East.

Here's why this is technically NOT propaganda. Propaganda is designed by or for the messenger in order to benefit the messenger.

PEW research, to my knowledge, has nothing to gain from the dissemination of this information. They are not fomenting a cause or promoting a product. They are not known to be a partner or fraternizer with any organization or party line that would benefit from this information. You may doubt its validity, but you cannot claim that it is propaganda.

Also, propaganda is typically best infused by appealing directly to emotion rather than logic. While there are types of propaganda that appeal to reason, they are considerably less effective.

I didn't ask you to explain what propaganda is

I asked you to explain specifically WHY it is propaganda

You can't answer a simple question. A simple straightforward question. Do you realize how pathetic that is? Yet it is the basis of everything you believe and claim to know to be true, and you can't answer a question or defend your position. What does that say about you?
