World War II propaganda

World War II propaganda was information and messaging used by governments to influence public opinion, boost morale, and garner support for the war effort. It employed posters, films, and speeches to encourage enlistment, conserve resources, and demonize enemies, often portraying the Axis powers negatively and emphasizing patriotic duty. Propaganda also aimed to unify diverse populations, foster national pride, and secure funding for military and civilian needs. By shaping perceptions through persuasive imagery and language, governments sought to motivate their citizens and sustain wartime efforts.
