Description | Content |
Article description: (description ) This attribute controls the content of the description and og:description elements. | A Cult of Personality arises when mass media, propaganda, or other methods are used by or on the behalf of an individual, usually a leader, to create an idealized, heroic, and at times worshipful image of them, often through unquestioning flattery and praise. A Cult of Personality is similar in some ways to A God Am I, except that it is established in the minds of others, usually by a state to empower its leader, especially in Totalitarian (and sometimes Authoritarian) governments. (And its subject rarely possesses the powers of a god, although he will in many cases make claims to them anyway -- see some of the more outlandish stories circulated about the Kim family of North Korea.) |
