delight or reaction to back blast? i've been wondering if there is a standard manual of basic propaganda tropes that appeal to hind brain emotions.  i can recall australian media publishing a pic of a 'croatian father and son leaving their home to defend against marauding serbs'. both in spotless camo, dad had an obsolete m48 mauser, son had a scoped .22 rifle. perfectly staged and placed on the associated press for golem media to spread. in 2020 the build up to war with china stories in australian media accelerated. they were the same stories used against japan in 1936. the 1936 stories programming for war with germany also used the poor persecuted jew meme.
