1)In the Nazi propaganda Hitler was viewed as their leader. He was worshiped and felt that he was the embodiment of the German nation. 2)I think that the purpose of the Nazi propaganda was to get people to believe and agree with everything that the Nazi and Hitler said. 3)Yes, I think that they were successful in this purpose. They were successful because people began to worship the Nazi propaganda. 4)The audience for the Nazi propaganda was Germans who were looking for something to give them hope for their nation. 5)Other audiences might think differently by not agreeing with anything that the Nazi propaganda said and they might notice all the bad. 6)One technique that the artists use to try to convince us to support the Nazis is making Hitler look like an idol and making him look all powerful. They drew people in the back with Hitler front and center to convince us that he was like a “savior”.

Naiommy:

1) The propaganda made Hitler seem like real true solution to lead Germany out of massive war debt caused by the first world war. 2) The main purpose of Nazi propaganda was to control peoples thinking so that they would agree with the terrible ideas that Nazism advocated.

Hitler is portrayed as a strong cunning leader with the answer to the all of the Germans economic problems The audience for the Nazi propaganda was anyone affected by the economic crisis in Germany anybody looking for an excuse or way to justify their suffering I believe the purpose of the propaganda the nazi used was a means of controlling the public narrative and subliminally planting these ideas that hitler was correct in his beliefs I think they were partially successful in there attempts to sway the public as many people did start to believe what they were hearing allowing the nazi to continue with out fear of consequences Other countries might loook at the propaganda as false as they know the truth behind the economic crisis in Germany it may wonder why the Jews were being used as a scapegoat for the entire country flaws The hardest you strong imagery and Jewish people as poor rat figures well depicting Hitler as a strong Fierce leader and the members of his nazi group as strong soldiers just looking to solve Germany’s problems

1.I think he was being portrayed as a ruler or some type of leader. 2.I think the purpose of the Nazi Propaganda was to make sure everyone agreed and was on Hitler's side. 3.Yes, I think it was successful because barely anyone tried to stop him and if they tried to stop him they didn't do anything. 4. 5. Other audiences would've thought that what he is doing and saying is wrong, and they would try to stop him eventually. 6. One technique the artists used to try to convince us to support the Nazis was trying to cover up all the bad things they were doing and if they couldn't cover it up they would just make it seem like it was something good.
