Modern Propaganda

The Roman literature that was used a propaganda was the Republican and Augustan periods, that was about the early legends of Rome. The literary evidence that they have are the remains of the materials like the coins that were used weren’t real, and could not be used for evidence for a claim that would be used for the moderns. Motives such as the wolf and twins were used on coins and used for an appearance, this was a long propaganda in Rome, because the use of the coins was used to renew something that was once important, and many people didn’t know that those coins were fake, so they used the images on the coins again. See, what happened was this was used before and was used again, around people who did not know much about what they were doing, and was caught because the wolf and twins were used for symbols of Rome period, and not for an individual or family in Rome. Augustus then used the coins for propaganda the involved Romulus. There were no literary sources with Romulus being used as a babe with the wolf and twins, but there were a lot of literary sources that used the Romulus myth. So the propaganda was that Augustus, used representations that were not real in stories of the early Roman Era that made his literary art propaganda. He used images that weren’t depicted for actual families, but only were used for all of Rome itself. This is how he got caught, although not many knew and many things were being used, he used coins that were fake with a person being used as a babe to the images, this caused uproar until he was called a political propaganda.

A modern commercial propaganda that is used is the commercial about Uncle Sam that states the army wants you enlist now. This is a modern propaganda because, the Army doesn’t accept everybody and if you do not meet the requirements, they eject you forever. This is used for a propaganda to have you enlist in the army, and only pumps there business on the commercial and posters they have to bring them great publicity. This is why they use it, but once a person tries 9 times out of 10 they do not get accepted for some unknown reason, they have their reasons, but you cannot believe everything the government tells you.
