Why did we call Germans the Hun menace?
Calling Slavs "Huns" may make sense but why Germans?
Why did we call Germans the Hun menace?
Lucas Cook
Adam Morgan
We compared the German militarism to the Huns
Jaxon Perez
It went back to Wilhelm II's famous "Hun speech" before the boxer rebellion war, google it
Jayden Foster
Because Kaiser Wilhelm made an autistic speech comparing himself and the Germans to Attila the Hun.
Daniel Davis
Why arr you making a thread about something you can look up on google faggot
Angel Taylor
What's remarkable about WW1 propaganda is that only the Allies dehumanized their opponents, you don't see German WW1 propaganda dehumanizing the enemies, at most it ridicules them
Zachary Morgan
cause the Huns crossed the Rhine and were stopped in Northeastern France like in WW1
Jaxson Miller
Daniel Phillips
Yeah Serbia must die and we will punish the dog Serbia aren't dehumanising at all. Although Brits took it too a next level with the dead factories and the crucifixion.
Isaac Anderson
>serbs
>people
You've neither been in the country, nor actually seen their diaspora. They're the most backwards slavs together with hoh*ls
Zachary Perry
that is also rather ridiculing
not comparable to contemporary Allied propaganda
Gavin Hughes
>is that only the Allies dehumanized their opponents
only Anglo-Americans*
French propaganda is too nice. For some reason they're much better than all of us at that
Levi Morris
During the boxer rebellion, the Kaiser said that the German army would descend upon the Chinese like the Hun. He hated Asians and wanted China destroyed. The Germans would have even burned Peking to the ground had the other armies not stopped him.
Jose Bell
Ryan Bell
not true.
Austin White
You can't dehumanize what isn't human to begin with, Hun.
Brandon Sanchez
Britain and Germany really were quite brutal during the first 50 years of chinese humiliation
Dylan Garcia
>mutt calling anyone names
This is for grown ups only
Owen Torres
What's even more remarkable is that the kind of dehumanizing propaganda employed by the Western allies until today, most importantly in the UK while in Eastern Europe and Russia, countries where a way larger share of the population died during the wars, the same sentiment doesn't exist. For the Soviets German proletarians were just being manipulated by their fascist overlords.

Sorry if it hurt your feelings, Hun Jr. Also, before you say something, I;m using "Jr." to denote that your country are less significant than Germany, not that it is necessarily younger.
Liam Adams
Don't find it that deshumanizing. But you did the same during the Rhur occupation anyway
Hudson Jackson
Jack Torres
Soviets had the most based propaganda by far, yes. Americans the most cringe. Very primitive like you say.
Jayden Stewart
I like this one
Dominic Thompson
I think we were the best at combining propaganda with entertainment.
youtube.com
Something like this is far more enjoyable than any German or Soviet propaganda film even if it isn't as sophisticated.
Brayden Brooks
Don't you have to die for Israel or something?
Ian Torres
These are fun to watch

Jace Sullivan
What are we doing there?
Alexander Baker
probably supposed to portray the "european crusade" against bolshevism
Colton King
The Japs aren't bad either
