A blue giant octopus has the world in its grasp. The octopus has the star of David, a very significant symbol to the Jews, over its head. It doesn't just have its tentacles on Europe where a lot of the Holocaust is taking place, it has it all over the world. It's grabbing every corner of the world. Not only is it grabbing the whole world, it has ink spreading from its tentacles on the white untainted globe.
The Message
Jews are spreading and dominating is the message of this poster. It shows that they are getting control of the entire world. They are spreading their filth all over the clean, white, perfect world. It is also one octopus, one Jew doing all this harm. It's saying, "look what one Jew can do. Imagine what many Jews can do?" They have control of the world.
Propaganda Technique 1
One of the propaganda techniques in the poster is making it big. Look at the size of that octopus! It's big enough to cover the place where billions of people live. Anyone can see the point that they are trying to make on the poster. They don't care about anything, they just want to dominate the entire world. It has easy control over anything.
Propaganda Technique 2
Another propaganda technique used in the poster is emotion. If I were living in those bad times I would be very afraid. It's something horrendous that is and will get you. No matter how much you try to stay clear and try to hide, you will be caught and discovered. If I were with another person there, I would have feel that I have to protect them from this horrible beast. It would make me want to help them and keep them safe. It would stir a protective feeling inside me.
