Be wary of propaganda

This is a documentary propaganda film made by a talented director at the height of the Nazis, and it does not deserve a rating given the heinous crimes committed by the Nazis.

To be honest, when I watched it, I didn’t feel any turbulence in my heart. After watching a few paragraphs with the fast-forward button, the Fuhrer’s bullshit was really stinky and long. I am really familiar with this propaganda method and can’t be familiar with it any more. Perhaps it was also a heinous crime by a Nazi, and the latter were somewhat restrained by this kind of thing.

How can we resist the temptation of propaganda? I think that only by constantly questioning, "Is what I see is an illusion?" and not ceding the duty of thinking to anyone else, can it be possible to keep a little sanity in the frenzy: a person who is extremely generous Is the first sentence of the first sentence a cover-up for the next sentence containing private goods? Can the incomparably adoring eyes really come from a commonsense person? Why is Führer's image always up and down, suddenly Far and near, isn't he just an ordinary administrator? Can the harmonious and united group life depicted in the film really happen in a group with "independent thinking ability"?

Therefore, you must not be moved by the so-called grand narrative. There is nothing to be moved. The film only needs to be responsible for two hours of time and even those few frames of freeze-frame pictures, and public servants need to be responsible for all the time on the timeline. The self-interested side, the ideal idyll for everyone, should not be seen as a feasible goal. There is nothing noble in politics, but a search for order in the brutal exploitation of each other.

Hope that you have the courage to face the truth, and hope that the truth will become less unacceptable.

    Crazy worship, people are no longer "people", but become tools in the hands of some people. Don't talk to me about how great Hitler was. He was just using others as cannon fodder to satisfy his own desires, and using other people's flesh and blood to achieve his supreme prestige. Also high-sounding to fight for the people of all Germany!

    A very powerful political propaganda film. Although the propaganda is for Nazis and the praise is for Hitler, Chinese people will definitely be very familiar with it. Because the swastika inside is changed, it is our country. The difference, of course, is that the smiles of the people in this documentary are all real, not ours...
