What is the point in propaganda? Simply put, it’s work that intends to promote or publicize a certain topic. It usually is used to help increase support for or against that topic. Some effective ways in using propaganda is by using guilt, making fake promises, or giving a cause to like or dislike the topic. People are asked, “Why are you not taking action against this horrible situation?” They are told that by doing this you can get fame, acknowledgement, and help save your country from anything. I think that these methods are pretty effective. They “attack” human emotions and empathy to promote the cause. During more popularized wars (WWI, WWII), propaganda saying, “What are you doing to help save your country?” could influence many people: the target audience leaning towards men than women(at the time).

I think that propaganda has not really changed much. The same methods are used in order to appeal or grab the attention of whoever the target audience is. The reasons behind these propaganda may be completely different, but they still attempt to attack the human emotion. I think that different countries will have different influences. For example, the iconic Uncle Sam probably won’t have the same effect on an enemy nation.
