Did you realize there was another war being fought? This war wasn’t fought with guns it was fought with propaganda of all sorts of types. I am here to explain about the types of propaganda used in this secret war. One common propaganda type people think of when they hear WW2 is posters. The lovable characters like Uncle
During World War II, propaganda played a key role in gaining support for the war effort. This World War II era poster is a good example of that role. It shows a black swastika overtaking three stereotypically 1940’s-American children with the subhead “Buy War Bonds” (Smith). The use of propaganda tactics in this WWII poster reveals multiple ways to manipulate the American public to buy war bonds. The poster goes beyond persuasion, which Jowlett and O’Donnel say influences others and contains a message
Patel 1 Propaganda The word “propaganda” comes from the Italian language. The phrase “congregatio de propaganda fide” was used to support the catholic faith in response to the Protestant Reformation (Labash, 20 Dec, 2001). Wherever you go you will almost always find a type of propaganda. Propaganda has been used for a long time.

Introduction Propaganda remains a relatively unformed concepts despite the fact that it was defined by many scientists with different ways. This is reflected in the uncertainty and absence of agreement between several ways used to explain the phenomenon. But still some aspects of propaganda can be studied without unconditional agreement in political and other sciences.

World War 2 started after the Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor. Propaganda was always used, but it didn’t have a big effect until WW2. The government knew that they wouldn’t succeed without the help of the citizens. “Whether it was abroad or on the home front, each American citizen was asked by their government to contribute to the war effort.

Propaganda Usage in the Russian Revolution and Animal Farm Animal Farm by George Orwell was written towards the end of World War 2 and during the time of the Russian Revolution. Orwell made the animal's characteristics in Animal Farm so that they would represent some part of the Russian Revolution; Squealer, for example, represents the propaganda throughout the time period.

An example of desensitization due to propaganda can be how Adolf Hitler desensitized Germany toward the Jesuit community by calling them Untermensch, or subhuman (“Untermensch,” 2017, October 27).
