Language is powerful tool for manipulation because it shapes influences emotions and guides decision making. For example Repetition can be tool because repetition is repeating specific phrases or ideas to make them more familiar. I say that because advertising can use repetition to point where can it manipulate into them to buying whatever its advertising.

Language can be used as a tool for manipulation in multiple ways. One way language can be used as a tool for manipulation is by the certain words we use and also our tone of voice plays a big part. One of the main ones for me is when you're in a bad situation and sometimes that state of mind you're in doesn't allow you to not get pulled into the trick. An example of this would be when colleges reach out to and say for instance you go tour the campus then once you get admitted and start going they're treating you differently and to be honest they don't take care of you how they told you to.

Persuasion is a language that can be used as a tool for manipulation. I've seen a lot of wig influences do wigs and persuade people to get wigs that are not actually as great as they look.

Language can be used as a powerful tool for manipulation. It can manipulate by forcing strong emotions like fear or hope and using them to sway decisions. Examples can be seen in politics. Trump, in one of his speeches, talks about how immigrants are coming over and eating house pets. This really scared a lot of Americans into agreeing with him. He also says things like "No one is safe in Biden's America." Out of fear, Americans would feel as if Trump is a better choice. It makes things seem as if they would be safer with Trump as president.

Propaganda is a tool for manipulation.

For instance, propaganda is used in stories because they are sometimes used to inform people to somehow scare them.

Language can be used as a tool for manipulation by the way a person speaks to someone a certain way. For example, some people tell their parents "you don't really love me if you don't buy me this".

Language can be used as an manipulation by using powerful imagery or language, appealing to emotions, and by flaming issues in a specific way. Ways people use manipulation are in relationships. In relationships, people uses manipulation but lying, shaming, criticizing, or even trying to make you feel guilty to make them a victim in a situation. Other ways of manipulation is when they compare you to others and always blame you for things they also do.

By showing how people can twist words to make them believe that is true. Like this TV show I watched AOT, it show that the Marley told their people that people on Paradis Island can all turn into titan and that the wall is protecting them. But in reality not all the people on Paradis Island can turn into titans. This shows how people sometimes cannot believe what the government or higher ups say.
