nationalist propaganda

Flag-waving misinformation campaigns

Nationalist propaganda is messaging designed to promote a nation's interests, identity, or superiority, often by appealing to patriotic sentiment or demonizing outsiders.

The term carries negative connotations—calling something nationalist propaganda implies manipulation rather than honest persuasion: The regime flooded state media with nationalist propaganda.

It may glorify military strength, historical grievances, or ethnic purity to build support for government policies or stoke hostility toward other nations.
