Study a resource for logical fallacies and then go back and see how many you can find in that meme.
Understanding fallacies is prerequiste to thinking critically. If you don't understand informal logic, you cannot think critically.
The definition for propaganda is: the manipulation of symbols for the purpose of eliciting a desired response.
You still need to understand the fallacies to be able to think critically, however. And you have to have a earnest desire to see truth regardless of what it turns out to be, which means abandoning all preconceptions.
