it sounds a little bit like dehumanisation propaganda to me

Source is Pyrrha though... she'd never lie to Jaune Pyrrha would never lie to Jaune, but do you think Pyrrha actually knows it for a fact? The idea of propoganda is that people pass it on because it makes sense to them. Pyrrha could be doing just that.

exactly. i mean, if ONE person survives a grimm fight all those centuries ago, and says "those Grimm are so powerful, horrible looking and scary, why, they must be Soulless" and then that spreads, and soon enough everyone believes it, and they are teaching their kids about how the brave hunters and huntresses kill off thousands of Grimm, but its ok, because they are soulless monsters and its good that they die.

and in truth, the Grimm are only trying to reclaim some mystic artifact that was stolen from them.

and then, when the truth comes out, all the hunters and huntresses have to deal with the fact that every single one of those thousands of grimm they killed had souls. (bonus points if the weapons they use to kill grimm destroy the souls, further horrifying the Humans and faunus)
