One example of false consciousness is being persuaded by an infomercial that you need a product but in all reality, you do not need it. Another example would be watching something bad happening in front of you but thinking it is not bad.

False consciousness is the reason lower class citizens vote republican. They have adopted the views of their oppressors. It is the reason why lower income families will vote for tax "cuts" for the rich. Same breaks that wont benefit them at all directly. They dont realize that they aren't helping themselves, but the people who are fighting to keep them struggling. To be blinded by the song and dance and not "realize" where your alliances should really be.

Actually, the answer above is a good example of False Consciousness...it's the process by which proletariat are misled by material and institutional processes in capitalist society(as suggested by Karl Marx).
