How Did Hitler Use Propaganda

There is no better way than to describe the act of mind control as the term “brainwash”. However, brainwashing effectively ties together with the use of propaganda by reaching out to a certain group of people in this case the Germans and the citizens of the world state through advertisements such as images, books, news, radios, and the press. In both the novel, Brave New World by Aldous Huxley and the Nazi Party in Germany who was ruled by Adolf Hitler there are various ways that brainwashing and propaganda gradually take place in both the past, from the year 1933 to 1945 and the believed future of After Ford 632. Propaganda and mind control are two manipulating strategies used to destroy the identities of innocent citizens in both the Nazi Party in Germany and in the World State. Ultimately, the Transference, Bandwagon and Glittering Generalities propaganda techniques are three efficient plans used to overpower the people of Germany as well as the World State as they are controlled and influenced by the same propaganda techniques but in different aspects.

First of all, the Nazis used false information about Jewish people and utilized negative Jewish stereotypes to legitimize the horrific acts of violence during the Final Solution. The Nazis were evil towards the Jews. Movies, newspapers, and posters were only some of the ways anti-semitic messages were thrown out into the public. A newspaper called Der Sturmer pumped out stories devoted to showing Germans how dirty Jews were (Marcovitz 15). Things like “Jews are immoral, indecent, dishonest, ugly, fat, not human, cannibalistic”, and “Jews eat their children and drink their blood”, were common headlines (Marcovitz 15). Jews were not humans. They were on the same level as bugs and needed to be exterminated from Germany and all of Eastern Europe. Also, stereotypes from 100’s of years ago were still alive and well. Jews were tax collectors a long time ago, and some people still hated them for it. Some people could not let go of old derogatory lies and the Nazis loved this. Hate towards the Jews was stronger than kindness and the Nazis fed off of this. If people saw the propaganda and the heard old stereotypes, then maybe they would hop on board with the Nazis.

To begin, the Nazi Party believed the Jews were engaged in a conspiracy for world domination. In addition, the Nazi Party believed that it was the Jews who controlled society and made the Germans suffer. According to annefrankguide.net, ”According to NSDAP (Nazi Party), Germany had lost the first war because of the Jews.” (“The Jews as Scapegoats” 1). Furthermore, Hitler and his followers believed that things would get much better for Germany if only the Jews were kicked out of the country. There were 500,000 Jews living in Germany in 1933 (less than 1%). That meant that it was hard to find or identify a Jew. In conclusion, the Nazi Party believed that the Jews caused all the problems in

The Nazi government used many system of persecution to implement the Holocaust. Some of the system of persecution were propaganda, creation of laws and the use of gas chambers.

    Even at the local level jews were greatly targeted by the propaganda put up by the nazis. The nazis ordered “all villages in the district to build large anti-jewish signs.”(Hill, 98) Even some Jewish children couldn’t go to school because they weren’t welcome there. The nazis had a specific way they wanted hate spread out on paper. Posters had to be “30ft by 5ft. The word Jew shall be underlined in red and must be conspicuous. When possible the poster is to be framed with a black margin.”(Hill, 98, 99) “These Jewish poles lost everything: jobs, schools, property, land, and money.”(Haugen, 17)

The forced labor for which the Jews of occupied Poland were drafted took different forms and lasted from the beginning of World War II until its end. As soon as the German army entered Poland in September 1939, individual Jews and groups of Jews were forced to clear roadways (Encyclopedia of the Holocaust 1). The only purpose for subjecting Jews to forced labor was to degrade them. On October 26, 1939, labor was introducedby law, applying to Jewish males ranging from the age of fourteen to sixty, education was put into the hands of the SS command. The law was also applied to women, and to children from twelve to fourteen. As time went on, special labor camps were put up for Jews, who were called by name to report to them. In these labor camps the Jews had to work under very harsh conditions. In the Lublin district, twenty nine such camps were in operation by July 1940 (Encyclopedia of the Holocaust 1). In that August twenty thousand Jews ranging from nineteen to thirty-five were ordered to report to labor camps. (Encyclopedia of the Holocaust 1). As time went on, special labor camps were put up for Jews, who were summoned by name to report to them. In these labor camps the Jews were quartered in barracks and had to work under very harsh conditions. In the Lublin district, twenty-nine such camps were in operation by July 1940. (Encyclopedia of the Holocaust 2). In August of that year twenty thousand Jews in the nineteen to thirty-five age group were ordered to report to labor camps. Many people died in the camps, and other were left exhausted and disabled for life. . In certain ghettos, the entire population was on forced labor and the ghettos, in effect, became labor

At the same time, a carefully orchestrated smear campaign under the direction of Propaganda Minister Joseph Goebbels portrayed Jews as enemies of the German people. Daily anti-Semitic slurs appeared in Nazi newspapers, on posters, the movies, radio, in speeches by Hitler and top Nazis, and in the classroom. As a result, State-sanctioned anti-Semitism became the norm throughout Germany. The Jews lost everything, including their homes and businesses, with no protest or public

Propaganda has been used for a very long time as a way to persuade people to try and get their support. Propaganda, Uses and Psychology defines propaganda as, "a form of communication to influence the behavior of people by affecting their perceptions, attitudes and opinions" (Neumann). Propaganda was a big thing that helped influence people during the Nazi era. The Nazis would use several different forms of propaganda to gain media and public attention for their cause. Types of propaganda they used were: posters, movies, newspapers, and music.

It is truly important to remember what had occurred in labor camps from 1933 to 1939. In Nazi Germany, concentration camps were where people were sent to work. Jews and other groups of people such as gypsies were sent to these camps. If someone was unable to work, they would be killed. The camps in Nazi Germany were cruel, and inhumane because people who were unable to work were killed, many caught deadly diseases, people were marked with wrong symbol, got experimented on, and people were sent to terrible housing.

Germany was ready to do everything they could in their power to make the Jewish population hated. They filled televised shows with hateful non-humanlike cartoons, put up disgusting paintings all over, and talked bad about the Jew’s on the radio. They also started teaching young children along with teenagers in Germany that Jewish people were not to be trusted stating that they were disgusting people so that the younger German’s would grow up with hatred for the Jew’s. Germany was willing to do everything they possibly could for all Germans to have hate along with despise for the Jew’s. The propaganda campaign was started and became very successful, it encouraged passivity and hate for the Jewish population.

World War 1 Was world war one worth the death of thirty seven million people? There was not just one cause of world war one, there were many. But the assassination of of Austria Hungary’s archduke triggered the war. Europe had always been a grenade, waiting to go off, and it eventually did.

Nazi racial policies significantly influenced and impacted Jewish life throughout the course of 1933 up to 1939. There was a pronounced alteration in the conditions of the Jewish community due to the advancement of Nazism and Anti-Semitism in Europe. Hitler’s rise to power completely changed the aspect of life in Germany. Jews were accused of economic crises and losing the first world war out of ire, fear and bigotry. The Nazi racial policies is a series of highly discriminatory policies and laws implemented in Nazi Germany as the Nazis perceived the Jews as an inferior and poisonous race. There was an increase in the violent nature and discrimination against Jews as the biased views of Hitler have instilled an impression in German society

The Nazis and Hitler used extreme propaganda in attempt for people to accept their actions. Hitler made the Jews out to be a problem and a threat to the purity and perfection of German society (Holocaust Encyclopdia: Nazi Propaganda ). In Hitler’s speech to the Reichstag in September, 1942, he states,

Hitler was a german politician who became leader of Germany through steps. HItler used many forms of propaganda to convince the German Citizens that Jews were the problem for their situation. Hitler also held rallies throughout Germany to further convince the Germans that his message was correct. Hitler’s message to the German citizens was that Jews are the reason for Germany’s economic situation. The propaganda in Germany continued in Hitler’s running and even later after he becomes fuhrer.

Nazi propaganda started off simply as a display of anti-Semitism. However as time progressed it became more and more extreme. In 1933 the Nazis passed the Nuremberg laws. The first rule of order was to prohibit Jews from holding public office. This is only the first step in their plot to diminish the Jewish community. More laws then came. In 1935, the Nuremberg laws took German citizenship away from the Jews. They also had to wear a bright yellow star attached to their clothes so the Nazis could identify them.
