I once heard a lecturer state that "the greatest victory for someone who conducts a propaganda campaign would be to make losers feel like winners." How do you interpret this assertion? Serious answers only, please.

To make the losers feel like winners distracts the opposition from the intentions of the propagandists.

If you're trying to persuade someone, the best way to do it is to make them feel "smart" - or like a "winner" - if they agree. We all want to feel good about ourselves.
