Propaganda was used by many government parties when it was first introduced, such as Hitler and his Nazi party. Hitler used his propaganda on a war torn Germany, where the people were looking for a leader who would give them a fresh start, and give the country a new beginning. Before the second World War took off, HItler made many promises to Germany. HItler promised the people of Germany relief, he also promised jobs for the unemployed, and a market for the farmer goods (The Rise of Hitler and Nazism). Hitler begun to appeal to people's emotions, rather than reason. As you know, Hitler did not keep any of his promises, thus making his promises a use of propaganda. Propaganda can make people do things they see. Such as a poster. If you see a poster of Uncle Sam, telling you he wants you for the US Army, you must think the Army needs me, and you are doing a good deed (poster below). This was a common use of propaganda when countries in need needed people for war. Although propaganda has died down in the last hundreds of years, it still exists today in some forms. Today, propaganda is used in some things such as commercials, making you think that this product is better than it’s competition. Below is a video explaining how propaganda is used in modern day America. In conclusion, Propaganda is used weather you realize it or not. It is used right under our noses every day. Weather it’s watching TV, viewing posters, even computer adds. Even though it has died down, propaganda still exists and is used on people
