Apparently some of the propaganda films were so good they are still buried. Forbidden Films delved into the subject. The synopsis says:

quote:

1,200 feature films were made in Germany’s Third Reich. According to experts, some 100 of these were blatant Nazi propaganda. Nearly seventy years after the end of the Nazi regime, more than 40 of these films remain under lock and key. Director Felix Moeller (Harlan: In the Shadow of Jew Süss) interviews German film historians, archivists and filmgoers in an investigation of the power, and potential danger, of cinema when used for ideological purposes. Utilizing clips from the films and recorded discussions from public screenings (permitted in Germany in educational contexts) in Munich, Berlin, Paris and Jerusalem, Moeller shows how contentious these 70-year-old films remain, and how propaganda can retain its punch when presented to audiences susceptible to manipulation. —Telluride Film Festival

Would be curious about their complaints of the previous regime and its societal decay.

I’ve heard that “Stolz der Nation” is so hot it’ll burn the place down.

I found one online and instead of being a typical rant and raving movie against the Jews it was quite well done. Somewhat entertaining, although the villain was Jewish, it was amazing how it was written. Used top notch actors too.

It’s how propaganda works, it’s not going to be some poorly made film it’ll be good quality. Also the people you’re attacking are going to be demonized to the point that the public don’t see them as human or as less than. Ethnic cleansing 101 there

But movies & shows aren’t propaganda. If you don’t like something don’t watch! Isn’t that what we’re told? If Disney , Netflix et al are pumping their programming with The Message, just don’t watch! It’s a kids show anyway, it’s not made for you, why do you care if they gender/race swap a fictional character?

(They then do exactly that to real life people- Hamilton, Anne Boleyn, Issac Newton, etc…)

Imagine comparing movies with gays and race swaps to genocidal propaganda

How do you know that they don't have gays and race swapping in their movies?

These could be the actual releases of Snow White, Little Mermaid and Annie.

OK groomer. But the point is the same. The dumb-masses can be fooled into agreeing with any sort of propaganda. Be it taking an untested jab, wearing a mask to ... calling a singular group of people 'rats' & the like.

Oh wait, that's exactly what Gina Carano was talking about, before Disney axed her from that Star Wars thingy.

Wonder if that 40 watt bulb over your noggin went off or not.

Hollywood taught us to hate ourselves.

So, effective, unfortunately

I don't know what their movies were like. One of the Nazi's complaints was about transgenderism though.

That's why they went after Magnus Hirschfeld and destroyed his works. Hiirschfeld created what he called the Institute for Sexual Research which promoted horrors about sexuality, and it performed what were probably the first transgender surgeries. There are a lot of at least social parallels between America today and Weimar.
