information, especially of a biased or misleading nature, used to promote or publicize a particular political cause or point of view.

Democrats: "Yes that is a problem we need to address."
Republicans: "Yes that is a problem that Democrats refuse to address."

Guess which one was exposed to propaganda? That factual statement is a trigger.
