Definition
In my P.O.V. I believe that propaganda is used to lure others into doing what they would want them to do any way they can. Basically trying to convice others that what they are doing is the right thing and if you do the opposite it's wrong. -
Spreading the "Ganda"
The radio and television was the biggest impact on propaganda because it was a better way to communicate with everyone. Since some ads that were put up different get very far. Before radio, propaganda was hard to communicate with many people in such little time. -
The Next Source
Internet was the next souce in line to take on propaganda later on in the future. The internet was another way to communicate long-distance with others. Around this time it was important to understand propaganda and its effects. -
The Nature of Propaganda
In this image the Nazis are trying to say that if you did join them you would e bringing peace to your family, instead of going against them. Also, they are saying that if you did join them, your party will become your family as well. They will become your guardian angels. -
"New Truths"
Bias plays a major part in propaganda. Propaganda isn't made up randomly, it is linked to different sterotypes to reveal what everybody "knows". Bias is the maker of propaganda. -
The Art
To lure others into to join their party the Nazis would draw and design
artwork that related to politics. They would make it seem like you not joining their party was "un-german" of them and should fight along with their country. They believed that their artwork would lure them in. -
The Consquences of the Artwork
Nazi parties would take the work of the Germans; they created a musuem for the public to see how unacceptable their actions were, and to show why it deserved to be eliminated. This event took place in the beginning of the Munich in July 1937. -
Its Attempts
Propaganda was an attempt to change peoples minds and persuade others to think about new options. Propagandist try to alter others' opinions into thinking how they would think. But once you get an understanding of propaganda ou will be willing to go out and make your own independent decisions. -
The Great Depression
The Great Depression was very hard on the Germans in this time. A lot of people feared that their country would now be an example of Russia and their experiences with the government. Most feared that the depression would lead to communism. -
The Spoken Truth
Victor Klemperer, a professor, was fired from his teaching position in Dresden in 1935 because he was Jewish. After this took place he wrote a book about war and Hitler's most powerful propaganda tool. It wasn't the speeches that made it propagands, but the language. -
Nazi War
To go against the Nazis Allies, they reshaped their language so that their Allies couldn't understand it (retaking Europe in 1944). The American government named this to be compendium. Vompendium had to be used to decode and understand their language. -
Personal Targets (Cont.)
As time went on, people started to find out that the murders and Jewish rituals were untrue. But some were still convicted of crime and some were executed. This actions led to the impressions of the Medieval era. -
Hard Times

Nazi Power
When the Nazis came to power, many of the Jews in Germany were highly assimilated. They held positions in most of the professions, many were decorated veterans of World War I. Most thought of themselves as patriotic Germans, not as outsiders. -
How They Saw It
Nazis believed that their posters of propaganda should be them looking like the heros. Like, they are saving us from trouble and danger, when really it was them that caused most of it. Any other artwork that looked damaging to their parties would be destroyed. -
Film as Propaganda
Film as propaganda had seven basic devices which are: name-calling, glittering generality, transfer, testimonal, plain folks, bandwagon, and card stacking. All these devices were used lead people on to believe that what Hitler was doing was right. -
Books and Games
One thing that was very distressing was that the Nazis created children's books and games to help boys and girls see how the Germans were made out to be our enemies. Their goal was to get them hard-wired before any other contraditions entered their lives. -
