Could Propaganda be used as a weapon? Propaganda was used to shape international opinion in both WWI and WWII. It changed people's thoughts on both sides of the war. Can propaganda be used against its own targeted audiences? For example different posters all meant something different and was made to help American have a stronger force in the war. Propaganda could have made men want to enlist, could have been used as motivation, could help to save resources, could encourage women to be more involved in the war, etc.
I think propaganda was effective during both World War I and World War II. The propaganda posters were similar but different at the same time. Each targeted a specific audience like the Americans, the soldiers, women, men, kids.
