propagandise

Push biased messaging

Propagandise is the British spelling of propagandize—to spread propaganda or promote a particular viewpoint through biased or misleading information.

The word often carries negative connotations, implying manipulation rather than honest persuasion: The regime propagandised its citizens from childhood.

It can also mean to subject someone to propaganda: We've been propagandised into believing consumption equals happiness.
