Agitator propaganda analysis aimed to expose the stimuli that trigger mass destructiveness.

Evidence

The second complex of studies carried out by the Los Angeles group on the psychology of destructive tendencies within civilized society consisted of a content analysis of the speeches and articles of the anti-Semitic agitators who had been appearing in large numbers in the south-western United States since the 1930s. It was intended that this should expose the decisive stimuli to which the destructive tendencies in the masses responded. — Rolf Wiggershaus, The Frankfurt School, 382
