			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>&#8220;Any use of emotion (whether it be fear, patriotism, love, guilt, or any of the others in the pantheon of feelings) that is designed to sway your opinion is <strong><em>manipulation</em></strong>.&#8221;</p>
<p>When someone attempts to prey upon your guilt over having &#8220;too much,&#8221; your fear of another &#8220;terror attack,&#8221; your anger over &#8220;the rich&#8221; making a killing at your expense, or your fear of being labeled a &#8220;racist&#8221; or of being ostracized from the &#8220;cool&#8221; crowd&#8230; they are manipulating you. Their arguments are weak;  because they cannot appeal to you through logic, they go through the less heavily-guarded back door of emotions.  Beware.</p>
