5 fascinating findings on how disgust affects the way we vote, grocery shop and discriminate
“A growing body of evidence suggests that this emotion of disgust influences our moral beliefs and even our deeply held political intuitions,” says Pizarro, a professor of psychology at Cornell University. “It works through association. When one disgusting thing touches a clean thing, that clean thing becomes disgusting — not the other way around. This becomes a very useful as a strategy if you want to convince someone that an object, or an individual or an entire social group ought to be avoided.” As Pizarro points out, Nazi propaganda described Jews as smelling terrible while, more recently, anti-gay websites conjure up images of “vile sex acts.”

This is a really interesting topic because Nazi propaganda played a major role in emphasizing nationalism in Germany. You should definetely look at this book called "The Poisonous Mushroom" because it would be a really good example to use in your paper.
