It is hard to find where my loyalties lie after checking out all of these popular propaganda pieces. Propaganda may not be as publicly distributed as it was during WWII or the Cold War, but rest assured that it is still alive and well today -- albeit in more peaceful forms.
Most propaganda today is promotional, a sign of a shift to a more peaceful and less-warlike time. Everything from search engines to eco-initiatives can be pushed through a little clever and artistic propaganda. Many of these popular propaganda pieces are remakes of vintage ads from the aforementioned wars, but there are a few original ideas that are just as convincing as their vintage counterparts. If you are ready to throw freewill to the wind and become a better citizen in the process, then check out these popular propaganda pieces today.
