1. Thank you for sharing your interest in the history of British and German propaganda. What we learn from it (or don’t) will determine our future.
   This topic of mentally manipulating “folks” to assure an outcome has been honed since time immemorial. We, as part of our human nature ~ want our way, most often in seemingly benign ways. Today these strategies are obvious – implemented in every commercial, news sound bite, political speech and school classroom.
   Only the individual can make the choice to run, be circum or fight, and each has it’s inherint consequence. I believe Propaganda only softens a target that is open to it and the only way to harden one’s defenses is by putting on the armor of God.

   James 1:23 For if someone merely listens to the message and does not live it out, he is like someone who gazes at his own face in a mirror.
   James 1:24 For he gazes at himself and then goes out and immediately forgets what sort of person he was.
   James 1:25 But the one who peers into the perfect law of liberty and fixes his attention there, and does not become a forgetful listener but one who lives it out he will be blessed in what he does.

2. Good information! Thank You

3. The Nazi’s propaganda scheme fused an increased use of symbols with an emphasis on childhood development.

   Replace the word Nazi with the word Progressive (or Democrat, or Neo-Conservative, no difference) and you have the modern American (government) education system.

   Think of Nazi Pelosi and her perpetually calling honest work “wage slavery”. I don’t know about you, but I’ve never been a slave to my job. My employer never owned me. I have however been a tax slave. Income taxes stake a claim upon my labor. If I don’t own my labor, by definition, I would be a slave. Nazi Pelosi, slave monger.

4. I am a long time reader first reply to an article, As a Grandfather I am worried on how to counteract the brain washing in public school and news on anti- Christian propaganda on my Grandchildren. Any help
   Yes we go to Church, yes I buy Christian books, but I need to show them why being a Christian is better than most of the world. I do not want to wait and have them brain washed in school and college.

   Also, if you know of a better server than aol. bing, google , etc I am willing to change.

   1. Steven , your focus on religion is too narrow and will fail a true education in history(very little is taught and badly to create a aversion),basic psychology and methods of manipulation( 7 signs of liars),rules of logic and reason(true critical thinking,how to spot logical fallacies,ask the question”Why?”,underlying motivations(follow the money or fanatic?))
      . Caution this path may well lead to them being austricized or be outcast from their peers as they open their understanding to what happens arou
      nd them and stop being sheeple,herded around in a panic.

5. Excellent information BP, use of propaganda is very readily and easily seen through the anti-gun bias being used by MSM around the world on a daily basis, once one understands the process, one can see that no matter how calm, fact grounded a advocate of the the 2nd is, your essay explodes the myth from the doves within the pro gun movement that we will win people over with our erudite sensible reasoning, your essay also exposes other brain washing media methods that shine light on why bullying is so prevalent today and why people of any race or ethnic group are being portrayed in a predetermined mind set, lastly the ” herd ” mindset or group think is so very adaptable by so many non thinkers, is shown what happens each time there is a mass hysteria in any large crowd of people from a sudden incidence of death or destruction i.e., school shooting, tsunami, quake and so on.
