This was on a wall in my barracks at MOS school when I was a young Marine. Feels like ages ago ㅠㅠ

Did you fight for liberty?

>(((liberty)))

Nah got a weeb Okinawan dream vacation twice though, can't complain.

>enroll into military
>just sit in a base with your dick in your hands

Is being in the army the closest thing to being a NEET?

Did you introduce the values of freedom and liberty to Japanese qt3.14s?

...

These are my favorite kinds of propaganda posters because they really show how the government wanted to let people know that this was a total war. Even a simple automobile accident or a forest fire was detrimental to the war effort, and could be helping the Japs!

>that poor trigger discipline of H*tler with the gun so close to head of the nip

No wonder those nazbol lost

Did people really think shitty hand towels and not say, lowered wages, would cause people to go communist?

I think the crux is "treat your workers right and they won't become gommies" which is actually true

Try wiping your hands six days a week on harsh, cheap paper towels or awkward, unsanitary roller towels.

I agree but what a shitty thing to focus specifically on

...

Yeah and whose fault do you fucking think that was, Germany?

Yeah it's using that principle to basically say "keep your workers happy with our products", it's just that their products are fucking paper towels

This propaganda piece is a prime example of the anti-religious pressure put on the people of the Soviet Union in 1929. However, this movement initiated during the Russian civil war in 1917. The aim of this twenty-four year campaign was to eliminate religion and implement atheism, a materialist worldview. This was the fundamental ideological goal of the state, in order to control the comrade’s loyalty. There were two waves of anti-religious campaigns. The first campaign to induce atheism commenced in 1921 and concluded in 1928. Its goals consisted of seizing church valuables, persecution against churches, and believers. Likewise, the second campaign was active thirteen years after, with harsh legislation that prohibited religious activities. However, to be religious was not illegal. Often, affiliates were accused of being “against the regime” and prosecuted. This propaganda poster was released in 1929 during the second wave, when Stalin ordered harsher measures that embattled public religious activities. These orders specified the destruction of churches and the baseless trials, usually followed by the persecution of clergy and persistent believers.

Between 1928 and 1932, the Soviet Union, under the direction of Joseph Stalin, embarked on its first 5-Year Plan (Kranking, February 24, 2017). One of the principal goals focused on rapid industrialization and the integration of the entire able-body Russian workforce into the state-directed economy. Quickly noticing the necessity for increased food production to feed the millions of new workers that would be integrated into the industrially focused command economy, the Soviet Central Committee devised a plan to increase the efficiency of food production by the destruction of rural strip farming and the adoption of the peasant collective. Essentially, collectivization sought to remove subsistence strip-farming and adopt a system of rural wage labor whereby peasants would be required to sell their product to the state at state-mandated prices. The legitimization of collectivization was the task of a strong propaganda campaign targeting kulaks and orthodox clergy as both class enemies and perpetrators of proletariat exploitation, while also promoting the role of non traditional sectors of society, especially women, in the workforce.

The religious aspect is shown by looking at either side of the picture. The left side all the factories are in disrepair, a drunk uneducated man, and all of the figures appear to be falling down, which showcases the transition from religion to secularism. The title of the picture is “ Religion is the Enemy of Industrialization”, which is very fitting for the plans that Stalin had in store for the future of Soviet society. The right side of the poster shows an intellectual fellow reading a newspaper (Pravda?), someone who is updated on current events looking at all of the promises of possibility stemming from industrialization. From the Bolshevik revolution, the Soviet government wanted to nationalize all church property and then officially separate the two. It would give money back to the state after liquidating the subsidies that were given to the church. In the novel, Red Bread, Hindus recalls that during his first trip to Russia, religion was very prominent. Everyone was getting married under the church, people would attend church regularly, and the church was one of the nicest buildings in the town. Conversely, the return to Russia, he noticed that much of the town had replaced religion with a devotion to the state. The church was in poor repair, hardly anyone attended ceremonies as well as little to none marriages within the church. Part of the religious dissertation was due to fear of the state because if you did not buy into the state you could be seen as an enemy. “He who is not with us is against us” was a common ideology against religion in the Soviet Union.

I always liked the meta aspect of this poster. It shows the stereotypical Hollywood gangster movie as something Italians would associate with America. But said gangster movies were based in large part on American stereotypes about people of Italian descent. It's like an Irishman portraying an American as a leprechaun.

Religious institutions, as a representation of older, regressive ways contrary to communist progress, were a favorite target of Soviet ridicule. From obvious criticisms in their cinema (the Orthodox priest in Battleship Potemkin) (Eisenstein) to the anti-religious illustrations by D. Moor, “the most popular Bolshevik cartoonist.” (Hindus, 267), it would not be unreasonable to say that it was pervasive. As the Soviet Union was rife with propaganda material, it would require little imagination to venture that religion was similarly discussed via propaganda, and posters in particular. The subject of this essay is one poster that, in short, denigrates organized religion and venerates state-run education. By its very existence, one may be able to state with some confidence that Russian society, contrary to the state’s wishes, at this point in time was still reluctant to let go of its religious heritage. Conversely, this poster also supports the Soviet notion of their youth being the future, and a state-controlled mandatory education is the key to shaping them into model Soviet citizens.

Among the most important tasks that the Bolsheviks set themselves upon coming to power was to emancipate Soviet citizens from religion. Along with equality and the literacy campaign that was intimately connected with it, antireligious propaganda was a key component of the cultural front during the 1920s and 1930s. One of the examples of such propaganda is this antireligious and pro – feminist poster from 1931 that says: “Working women in the struggle for socialism and the struggle against religion. Religion is an instrument of enslavement of a working woman”.

I'd like to thank a moment and appreciate the user(s) that post the foreign propaganda with "subtitles".

Most people don't do that.

The Soviet Union took advantage of the very real racial tensions in the U.S. to create anti-American propaganda. This 1930 Soviet poster shows a black American being lynched from the Statue of Liberty, while the text below asserts the links between racism and Christianity. 1930 issue of Bezbozhnik.

“The People of the Cold War are Waiting (Disarmament)” is a Soviet propaganda poster that aimed at protecting the message that the United States disagreed with the idea of peace and demilitarization. Uncle Sam is depicted in the poster to personify the American government disagreeing with a Soviet communist worker. The poster send the message that the United States is not interested in letting Soviet communism be with depicting the US refusal to sign a peace agreement. The poster was created by Russian artist Viktor Govorkov and distributed by Moscow in 1962. Born in 1906, Govorkov worked as a satirical poster artist for the Soviet state. Govorkov created the poster as an anti-American campaign by depicting a hostile relationship between the two countries. Uncle Sam is shown unwilling to compromise while the Soviet worker is shown keen to cooperate. Disarmament is also an important element of the propaganda piece because so much of the Cold War is built up around nuclear weapons and military forces.

This poster depicts a large, portly Jewish man behind the Soviet, British and American flags, with the translated caption: “Behind Enemy Lines – the Jew!” (Getty Images). Little is known about this poster, except that the artist was named Hamil and the poster was created in 1945. Antisemitism is a common theme in Nazi propaganda, and this was one of many posters from 1930s and 1940s. The Nazis believed that the Jews were the cause of Germany’s economic troubles and moral predicaments (Koonz). They also alleged that the Jews were controlling the affairs of other countries, and that they should be wiped out. Nations who stood up to Germany were seen as collaborating with the Jews. Terms such as “Jewish Bolshevism” and “mongrel nation” were defined to demonize the Allied Powers and use the Jews as a scapegoat.

Not really propaganda but
``Salutations from Kemalist Turkey to Facist Italy``
``Prime minister is visiting italy``.

Love fasces on Turkish flag it fits.

``There is no as ignorance,there is literacy``
``Everyone will be literate``

``Biggest enemy of turks is communism. It should be crushed whenever it is seen.``

>and not a single sacred maongo was eaten

`` Enemies of revolution show themselves again.``
(revolution here means secularization not commies.)

...

``Gallant Turkish soldier at cyprus``

`` Here take this uncle ali``
`` Give to us this atom bomb which can change the world in an instant. Enemies are driven mad with jealousy.``

Can't we keep the holidays but just remove the religious aspect?

But if I'm riding with Hitler then I'm not riding alone

Stop right there scum!!

``I want Cyprus to be Greece``

``Look as much as you like. . .The Turk’s unbending hand has said, “Stop.” Take heed . . .``

moreover it could be argued that the depiction of the american gangster as a villain ultimately backfired in the eyes of americans, since the imagery of the gangster was heavily romanticized in early years of cinema
