Is it right for governments to use propaganda to encourage citizens to believe one way or another

This is more of a personal opinion type of question.

But I would say that it isn't right because it's coercing the people to think in a certain way (either subconsciously or actively)

Explanation:

Propaganda is the dissemination of information—facts, arguments, rumours, half-truths, or lies—to influence public opinion.

Seeing that these advertising plans hold a lot of power over the american people, it shouldnt be used a manipulation tool.

"globalization has greatly impacted the united states and american citizens. first and foremost, globalization has spread american influence throughout the world. globalization has opened up more markets for the united states, which in effect american companies sell their products worldwide. there has been a rise of multinational corporations and their influence has greatly increased."
