News / I support creation of Great Poland [134]

That would mean war, don't you know that Crow?
Or do you know and don't care?
Or even worse you wish for a great european war again to maybe profit from it?

The loser will be the Serbs, believe me!

History / Poland war propaganda poster - can anyone explain this picture? [292]

What’s this plus poster s**t BB? Did you run out of the arguments already?

What argument??? I'm looking for anti-polish propaganda posters (by the Nazis)? We can't find any...

So it dose. It pretty much reflects German attitude and ideology based on a pseudoscience to all at that point of history, nothing to be proud of there BB.

What??? Did you read the thread actually?

There is not German poster. It is form 1939 and Soviet invasion on Poland.

Don't think so, it reads:

Nazi propaganda poster depicting executions of Polish military officers by the Soviets, with caption in Slovak - Forest of the dead at Katyn.

Still that doesn't explain the lack of propaganda posters against Poles!
The only poster I could find were about Katyn and the german soldier more looks like as if he would be guard the Poles against the Bolsheviks (propaganda I know):

Poland has done very good choice by fighting against Hitlers Germany.

Poland were never really given a choice!
It wasn't for nothing that Poland never got the possibility to build a collaboration government as so many other occupied countries had which were at least partly still self-responsible.

Don't re-write history.

Huh?

Is it forbidden now to ask questions??? Sorry but it IS mystifying to me that nobody seems to be able to find one little piece of anti-polish hate propaganda even as the whole WWII was full of propaganda posters (from all sides).

What has that to do with re-writing history???

With Poland on your side you would win this war without problems

Erm....you sure?

From Dokumentation der deutsch-polnischen Tagung (in PDF format)

That is all very nice Krzystof but the non-aggressions pact ended at the first of september 1939 and Germany occupied Poland for more than 4 years afterwards - lots of time, space and reason for hate propaganda.

Also we had a non-agressions pact with the Soviets earlier too but that didn't hinder anti-soviet war propaganda poster later!

So no, that too is not an explanation!

Bratwurst Boy,
If you do read something connected or just interesting, give us the gist, please

Okay....rough translation:

6. Professor Dr. Klaus Zieme (page 13):
Während der Geltungszeit des Nichtangriffspakts mit Polen von 1934 bis zum Frühjahr 1939
wurde die antipolnische Propaganda aus taktischen Gründen vermindert. Das negative
Polenbild blieb jedoch erhalten und wurde nach dem Überfall Deutschlands auf Polen
reaktiviert, z.B. bezüglich des sog. Bromberger Blutsonntags vom 3.09.1939, bei dem
Volksdeutsche in Polen umkamen, deren Zahl aber extrem übertrieben wurde. Die Ermordung
der polnischen Elite war Teil von Hitlers Zielsetzung, um seine Konzeption durchzusetzen,
„Lebensraum“ für Deutsche zu schaffen. Es müsse, so Hitler in den Instruktionen für die
Wehrmachtsführung zum Feldzug gegen Polen, „mit aller Härte“ vorgegangen werden.

The gist of it:

"The Nazis lessened anti-polish propaganda tactically somewhat because the non-agression pact with Poland 1934-1939.
The negative Poland image stayed however and was reactivated for example after the "Bromberger Blutsonntag" as ethnic Germans were murdered..."

But....WHERE IS IT???

Here are some from North Korea, I do not understand what is written but the imagery is self evident.

Somehow the North Koreans do look like the Red Army...is it the helmets???

Well...that doesn't explain the lack (or may I say total absence?) of anti-polish hate propaganda by the Germans!
Especially as every Pole and his grandmom tells me how much the Germans always hated the Poles and always will (on this board I mean)....to come up with some poster should have been easy!

Oh please...there wouldn't had been the need then for any propaganda poster at all.
That's a real far fetched theory! :)
There shouldn't have been any polish anti-german poster either following this theory...

Not to mention that the only Nazi poster concerning Poles I could find doesn't portray the Poles as somehow "subhuman" or hostile...quite to the contrary...

Nope...I looked under these words too and didn't find any...
Lot's of anti-anything posters (most not even from Germany) but no polish hostile ones!

I repeat, I find that really interesting!
What does that say about the real mindset of these times?

I found that Nazi poster though: Or this:

Nazi propaganda poster depicting executions of Polish military officers by the Soviets, with caption in Slovak - Forest of the dead at Katyn.

Anti-Polish sentiments among Germans were high in the pre-ww2 times.

I've seen some posters but generally there was simple no need to stimulate the hatred towards Poles in such a primitive way !

Anti-Communist sentiment and anti-Jew sentiment were quite stronger too and they had their own poster nonetheless so I don't think that would be an explanation.

War propaganda was used on all sides and surely not seen as "primitive" (even if it makes one smile now and then TODAY).

I just think it seems to point to a lack of hate contrary to the popular opinion that the Germans hated the Poles in the same way as Jews or Bolschewiks!

Germany's anti-polish posters addressed to whom? What "target audience" do you mean?

Germans???

Propaganda posters actually are used to boost the morale, the will to fight, to de-humanize and of course to point out the enemy!
But there is an interesting lack of anti-polish posters...I had somehow expected a similiar denigrating sort of as against Jews and Reds...but there aren't any (or I'm just not finding them)..

Looks like an Aryan: :)

I think it was the fashion of the time...the stalinist poster aren't exactly the disabled, glass wearing neighbour sort either! :)
But I don't see exactly gayness in them, especially not in the children/youth poster...he isn't that pretty....

But if that isn't gay then I don't know! :):):)

Well, even so...we had still alot of posters too...

It's just mystifying that there aren't any anti-polish ones! What could that mean?
Maybe that the Poles weren't seen as enemies like the Bolscheviks or the Jews in the first place? Hmm....I'm really wondering here...

it still sounds like a music to the ears, isn't it? :)

Polish never sounds like music..sorry! :):):)

PS: And still no Nazi anti-polish poster...didn't they need one???
Interesting!

Slogan made by Propaganda Minister Josef Goebbels.

Not really! This saying existed long before and was actually a good one...
