False Flag

A False Flag is when someone calls attention to a "Red Flag" in an effort to manipulate opinions at to what is right and wrong. The false (red) flag is used when people are already biased to a similar opinion as the one presenting the information, or the misinformation is used to try to manipulate people into being newly biased.

A false flag is a tool often used when politicising a topic. It often makes situations more difficult instead of making situations easy because its harder to know what to believe.

false irony

When someone tries to pretend they were being ironic, but they meant exactly what they were saying. Often a tactic of bullies and fascists who claim they were just making jokes and having fun, but the intent has nothing to do with having fun.
