'''fear, uncertainty, and doubt''' (fud) is a manipulative technique that consists of usually false and typically unsubstantiated claims | |||
that appeal to fear, and drive people towards decisions based more on fear than anything else. | |||
Used in marketing (originating there), cults, politics (typically conservative), polling, public relations, propaganda, and more. | |||
See also: [[FOMO]] | |||
