 History repeats.

Side by side, jews and Germans worked and played and were happy. Along came the propaganda machine, Joseph Goebbels.He realised the power of the press, and used it to the nazi end game, or as they called it the final solution. Hitler wanted rid of the jews, so over the next few years, Goebbels turned the german public against them. He demonised the jewish community, he told lie after lie about them, and it worked.
Quotes:
“Think of the press as a great keyboard
on which the government can play.”
“You can’t change the masses. They will always be the same: dumb, gluttonous and forgetful.”
― Joseph Goebbels
"Let me control the media, and I will turn any nation into a herd of pigs"
If you repeat a lie often enough, people will believe it, and you will even come to believe it yourself.
A lie told once is a lie, but tell it a thousand times, it becomes the truth.
Back in the 1930's they knew then how to control us through the media. No TVs then, but radio,cinama and newpapers were a powerful tool, and he controled them all. Governments must control the media, otherwise we would think for ourselves, and that would never do. He managed to make the german public hate the jews, he got them to tell tales, turn their once friends in. Before to long, he was telling people how the USA was multicultural, and should be stoppped, he created problems with the Polish,French,Russians, and did all this with missinformation. The German people had no idea they hated these countries until Goebbels told them, it was like a pandemic on their senses.
They were gearing up for war, and the people had no idea. The jews were being sent to concentration camps, and the public accepted it. Over the months and years leading to the war, they forced the jews to wear a star so they could be identified, they siezed assets, imprisoned, and even vaccinated them.By the time Hitler annexed Austria and invade Poland, the people were behind him, they had been told it was going to happen one day, and were sort of expecting it.
Goebbles made a series of films, and they taught the public to hate the jew, the USA and anyone he was against.These were shown in the cinama, which was disscounted so the masses could be brainwashed. The radio was none stop propaganda too, and he used the tabloid press to cover every angle. He put up posters in evey shop window
Quotes:
“The most brilliant propagandist technique will yield no success unless one fundamental principle is borne in mind constantly - it must confine itself to a few points and repeat them over and over.”
― Joseph Goebbels
If you repeat a lie often enough, people will believe it, and you will even come to believe it yourself.
Joseph Goebbels
Propaganda works best when those who are being manipulated
are confident they are acting on their own free will.
Joseph Goebbels
Repeat, repeat, a bit like Hands Face Space? Drum it into them, and they will believe it. He even turned German on German, and anyone who did not agree was called a conspiracy theorist.
