Definition
Relating to or characteristic of a demagog; using emotional appeals and prejudice instead of facts to persuade people.
Etymology
From demagog + -ic (suffix making adjectives). The adjective form emerged in the 1800s as political discourse became more analyzed. Related to Greek 'demagogikos.' The -ic ending comes from Latin and Greek and makes nouns into descriptive words.
Kelly Says
Demagogic speeches follow a surprisingly consistent pattern: they identify a villain, claim simple solutions exist, appeal to emotion rather than evidence, and promise salvation through one person's leadership. It's so formulaic that propaganda analysts can predict demagogic appeals before they're even completed!
