Q: "If someone were doing that what propaganda would they be using?"

 
A: Mind gatekeeping:
 
"The smart way to keep people passive and obedient
is to strictly limit the spectrum of acceptable opinion,
but allow very lively debate within that spectrum
— even encourage the more critical and dissident views.
That gives people the sense that there's free thinking going on,
while all the time the presuppositions of the system
are being reinforced
by the limits put on the range of the debate."

"The poor complain; they always do
But that’s just idle chatter
OUR system brings reward to all
At least all those who matter."
 
 
 

OR, to put it simply:
 

"LOOK OVER HERE!
LOOK OVER THERE!
LOOK UP!
LOOK DOWN!
LOOK ANYWHERE!
(Just don't look to your inter-connected selves!)"
