"宣伝者の目的は、ある集団の人々に他の特定の集団の人々が人間であることを忘れさせることです。"
— Aldous Huxley

Simplified Meaning:
When people use propaganda, they aim to make a group feel like another group is less human. They do this by spreading ideas that dehumanize the other group, making it easier to mistreat them. For instance, in history, Nazis spread propaganda portraying Jewish people as less than human, which led to widespread acceptance of their horrific actions. This kind of tactic can lead to hate and violence by creating a divide between different groups of people. In your own life, it's important to recognize when someone is trying to dehumanize others and to remember that all people deserve respect and empathy. By questioning biased messages and seeking to understand others, you help prevent the spread of harmful ideas.
