Translation:

The tape across his mouth says "Redeverbot", which roughly means "gag order" or "ban on talking/speaking".

The bottom text says:

Einer allein von 2000 Millionen Menschen der Erde darf in Deutschland nicht reden!

Which translates to:

Only one of 2000 million humans on Earth is not allowed to talk in Germany!

Today's AfD sympathisers be like: Man darf ja nichts mehr sagen.

You can't say anything more.

Nah, that's not exclusively an AfD thing. That's often boomer mentality. Many are out of touch with the rules for political correctness/decency nowadays and instead of trying to adapt, many try to make others stagnate as well.

I assume some MAGAT will be posting this on Twitter following a big "Hitler was misunderstood" rant some time soon if they haven't already.

They’re doing it on TikTok already

[-] DarkThoughts@fedia.io 4 points 12 hours ago

TicTok needs to be banned. Absolute degenerate platform that is only there for disinformation. The AfD gets boosted there like crazy as well.

And as we know, saying nice things one time means everything else you did was good. And certainly you wouldn't lie about those nice things! /s

I wish people were better at critical thinking.

Bet there are a lot of (kremlin) bots spreading division as usual too.

The point of right wing politics is to enable oppressing groups that aren't 'pure' in order to profit. They will be selling each other "Climate Change Is Gay Propaganda" as their beach houses are flooded by rising oceans.

The pattern is a sledge hammer to the face.

reminds me of this:

“There will be no curiosity, no enjoyment of the process of life. All competing pleasures will be destroyed. But always— do not forget this, Winston— always there will be the intoxication of power, constantly increasing and constantly growing subtler. Always, at every moment, there will be the thrill of victory, the sensation of trampling on an enemy who is helpless. If you want a picture of the future, imagine a boot stamping on a human face— forever. ” ― George Orwell, 1984

A community for historical propaganda, in image or video form. Subtitled videos and images are allowed.

What is Propaganda?

Propaganda is the deliberate dissemination of information, ideas, or narratives aimed at influencing public opinion or behavior, often to promote a particular political, social, or ideological agenda. It can take many forms, including speeches, media, art, or advertising. While propaganda is commonly associated with manipulation or bias, it can be either good or bad depending on the intent and content. Positive propaganda may be used to raise awareness about important social causes or encourage beneficial public behaviours, while negative propaganda often involves misleading or deceptive tactics to manipulate beliefs for harmful purposes.

Bigotry

While propaganda may contain bigotry, we require that the only reason one posts it here is because of historical interest. Any intent of Bigotry from posters or commenters will be immediately banned!
