[8:28 - 8:45] The pertinence of this statement with the modern times is spine-chilling!!
"Those who fail to learn history are doomed to repeat it." - George Santayana
I know this comment is three years old. But Marxists have known for over a century that World Revolution cannot happen whilst America remains free of their yoke. And they know traditional American values of God, Nation and Family make her a bulwark against such an ideology.
Antonio Gramsci was speaking in the 1920s about how the only way to ripen America for revolution was to make her lose sight of God, to turn her populace against each other, to destroy her view on the family unit, to eradicate her culture. A Fifth Column has been working on America in a bid to soften her up for societal collapse ever since. Look at the "Red Scare" of 1919, for example.

Watching in 2023 and after reading the proposed laws going through UK parliament. We should all consider our freedom very carefully, as we may not have the privilage to enjoy it for much longer.
Yeah and also for these characters if they can see our times it would be even worse considering the conflict in Ukraine vs Russia which you may also want to look into that as well.

8:28 The truth.
A cartoon made in 1948 predicts present day so profoundly that it's scary.
The people preaching disunity about all those things besides class warfare ARE the upper-class.
Don’t forget fear-mongering. Fauci demonstrated this during the “pandemic” which he made to exploit for profit.
@@JojoTheRed It happens everywhere, any form of socialism weasels its way to rich people and shakes their ass of power to them, the problem ain’t rich people, it’s power and corruption adding up to stupid people to take the bait (people like Pedro Castillo, Joe Biden, Jinping, Putin just to name a few so they can be richer themselves, abuse their power and destroy what they call lower degenerates)
@JIDDO2195 That's not true, otherwise the lower class wouldn't be preaching the same thing.
George Orwell wrote his book '1984' in 1948. (He switched around the last two digits of the year.) In 1948 the year 1984 seemed like a long way off in the future but it was a year that most younger people could expect to live to see. If only Orwell could see our world of 2023.
Four years before I was born. Another great set of videos can be found searching for drive-in movie intermission messages and cartoons. There were tons of PSA's (Public Service Announcements) and they were actually good advice. Be kind, considerate and thoughtful in your speech and actions.

I was seven when this came out in '48 and, yes, it was a good time to grow up.
Categorical and highly inaccurate.
@@josephuveges8538 Not true. It's a cartoon with cartoon humor, but with many important elements embedded in it. I have lived the truths it contains. What I learned cannot be revised or propagandized. You cannot turn away from the truth, once it has rang in your heart. A society which is trained away from listening to it's elders is doomed to repeat every mistake they made and learned from. Smart people listen to the wisdom of their elders. They don't start from scratch. Why do you think they are trying to ridicule and even kill off older people? I know you can figure it out.

You call someone else a bootlicker while wanting every aspect of society to be managed by the state? HAHAHAHA holy shit dude.
How relevant today in 2021. We are headed for dark times because too many people chugged down the bottle of -ism.
You know that saying ,,something someting strong men good times weak men bad times" well that's really a similar thing with Populism

For anyone who watched this, I also recommend listening to "If I were the Devil" by Paul Harvey.
We Americans took the melody to "God Save the King" and used it to make our own song, named "Our country 'tis of thee", during the Revolution of 1776. It became a patriotic song of devotion to the country.
Great video harking back to simpler times. Unfortunately the reality of the world is far more horrific on so many levels way beyond the narrative of the film.
"Mind if I read it first?" How apropos.
That last part reminds me of A Tour of Ryan Amusements in Bioshock 2.
Ah, a timeless, cheesy classic! I remember, once, when I came across a man who talked of "ism" he didn't like "isms" and said that they never worked. I disagreed and said that, while most "isms" don't work, there are a scant few that do. He scoffed at this and challenged my claim. "Alright, smart guy, name an 'ism' that works! None of 'em do!" I gave him the best "ism" I could think of: "heliocentrism", I said.

Though over seven decades old, this cartoon still provides a great number of facts. I dare question how it’s labeled “propaganda”.
Propaganda doesn't necessarily have to be false.
@@ArthurRex131 True, but propaganda is often used in a negative context (as something that is misleading and/or untrue).
Because "The 'Arts"" had already been infiltrated by communist's and their fellow travelers since the late- 20's/early-'30's. Remember that Reagan was president of the Screen Actors Guild before he ever got into politics and tried to root them out of the guild.
It was quite obviously created to be an anti-soviet union propaganda. This was the begining of the cold war after all. So yeah, it's propaganda, regardless of how true or not true it is.

State Capitalist*
1:05 is a fucking joke as we see now
The freedom to work at the job you like is a joke, yea you like your job but your also a slave to your borgouise who's controling you while their exploitating you for money but oh you can leave but it will cost you your life if you can't find a job
Freedom to own property, they placed that there so when Socialists mean we want to get rid of private property people brainwashed by that will think that we want to get rid of your fucking toothbrush
Security for unlawful etc...WTF HAHAHAHAHA Yea security for you from unlawful shit if you're white
The right to a speedy and whatever trial, uh yeah if you're white, if you're black they're just gonna say "nah you guilty" and make punishments worse for em
Protection against cruel punishments, HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAA, cop kills a black guy for "resisting arrest"
The right to vote, huh yeah sure except the borgouise controls it and they even rig the votes on a person as we saw with Bernie Sanders 2 times They riged it so Bernie can't win 2 times
To worship God and shit, yea sure thats true
"it is these freedoms that make America strong" no what makes it strong is the blood of the opressed workers and people while a couple of 10 guys own the entire economy of it
Advertising a Politcal ideology when advertising is what the idealology is against lmao
2:33 Yea it will AND is supposed give you higher wages and shit but dicators used it to their advantage and now I am willingly debunking a peice if American propoganda that everyone was brainwashed from
(I'm referring to communsim and any lefitst shit here)
And there will be no strikes because everyone will be happy working unless they aren't and they may and will strike
Ok the whole advertising shit for ism is just saying "I will use these methods on which communism is and isn't supposed to give you so I can command you to do whatever for me" which isn't the case with any ideology what so ever
3:09 yes a classic example with dicators using shit to manipulate the people but since this is propaganda they don't tell you that it's just dicators and make you believe it's the entire ideology in general
"signing away my freedom" yes what freedoms exactly because I just debunked your freedoms
"our system if free enterprise isn't perfect" no it's worse than perfect as I just explained why
The whole sequence of the dude making something is him working
"got some money from someone" yes so he didn't make money from working hard Anyways but I guess he needed recourses to work harder
"Mr Titus" another rich man lending his couple thousands out of his millions ok ok sure
5:27 keep blushing because you're exploitating workers
Now he's exploitatating the idea he made and his workers for money
"millions of jobs that never existed before" that's cool and all but at the cost of your surplus value, labour, wages, freedom, etc
"only one person" dang only one person did that amounts of damage
"even in the depression labor and wages bought more food" notice how it's all rich folks
This should be higher the USSR should be higher and actually they're blaming it on the USSR and not the fact that WW2 just fucking ended (talking about the national income)
"we drive 70% of the world's automobiles" Japan, Germany, etc
"things that Capitalisic system have given us in only 160 years" yea the shit is cool and all but when are you gonna talk about the exploitatation of the workers I've been waiting for that, oh wait it's American propoganda
"the state forbids strikes" uh no the reason you haven't seen strikes in the USSR is because probably everyone was happy working and even if the state forbided that, that doesn't mean it's all Socialism's fault because strikes is what gave fuel Socialism in the first place
"the union" Socialism is about the union of workers in the first place so they're making unions a bad thing or what?
"I'll take this to the supreme court, the state is the supreme court" lmao for the USSR yes lol, it's also true in amerikkka, also state run factories isn't Socialism, nor communism, and neither is the state being the supreme court
"no more private property" good, no more private property (buisnesses) for the rich man good lmao
It doesn't make any distinction between private and personal property and they put that there so when Socialists scream to get rid of private property people think they're trying to get rid of your underwear, "farmers don't vote anymore" bruh this is dicatorship not Socialism and don't Say that "Socialism is dicatorship" because it's Litteraly the opposite of what it's supposed to be the thing is Stalin took that to his advantage
"you don't have to worry about next year the state will do your planning from now on" so what about collective farms.....those where in the USSR and where good the only problem was the kulaks and stalin's poor polices
"state concitration camp" again no leftist ideologies except for tankie ones will do this or will want to do this
Also that freedom of speech segment where the state makes you say everything is fine, again no ideology does this except for tankie ones
The rich own the economy rn while the workers are slave to them, don't tell me that a class war isn't going on
"race hatred" communism is Litteraly THE OPPOSITE of this
"religious intolerance" who says Socialism doesn't allow religion
"the person seeks to Rob us of our freedom" so Stalin and the Capitalist then because they both take away freedom from the workers
"destroy our very lives blah blah blah" yes sure kill the dicator that makes Socialism look bad, oh wait it's American propoganda so Socialism is the only fault to this, sorry guys Socialism is bad because the state says so
9:10 ok so it's praising the state which is what you were against in the first place so uh, ok then
"freedom for all blah blah blah" I've just debunked that
This cartoon is spot on! Just wow!
2:50 That face is priceless
oh hey Zenssei fancy seeing you here
sorry to bring you back to this 6-year comment though lol
What's interesting about this cartoon is that it acknowledges that unions are an important part of the capitalist system, which is something modern conservatives would NEVER admit today.
Not totally true. It acknowledges LABOR as important, not necessarily unions. It just happened to have a union guy to represent labor. Also remember, this was from 1948 when unions were somewhat necessary. Unions are useless today and have become perverted in their original intent. They have killed the American car company and a host of other business.
"Unions are useless today"
Yes they are useless today if you ignore the increasing economic equality and deterioration of labor rights post-Reagan. You know Black Friday just happened, I'm sure those retail workers that were forced to work on thanksgiving under threat of termination could have used those useless unions too :)
And I'm sure they killed those industries and not incompetent management, it's NEVER the holy job creator's fault after all!
The only thing wrong with unions is when membership is mandatory and dues are confiscatory and they are used exclusively to back statist politicians who promise to keep it so.
It was only saying that because of radical unions that existed at the time. Any union that's worth a damn is anti-capitalist.
MrBanausos Better yet, how about real libertarian socialism rather than ayncrap "libertarianism"
I'm Canadian and I'll be honest sometimes I don't agree with what America does abroad; though I guess when you are the most powerful nation on Earth sometimes you don't have latitude in how you conduct yourself. But I infinitely respect the ideals the country was founded on; ideals like the equality of man; government restraint and opposition to tyranny. Sure, might have just been a line; but a good line still.
The ideals the US was founded on were rule by Anglo-Saxons as the superior "race", genocide against Native Americans and slavery of Africans. There's nothing to praise about that.
The Ideals of the United States was founded amongst the Colonials who became self-sufficient and when threatened, they have the right to protect themselves in the name of their Freedom.
The Native Americans during Manifest Destiny were Assimilated into the American Society or Forced to Relocate into Reservation, that's no Genocide to me. Then there are other Native American Tribes like the Comanche, Black Foot or the Apache that practiced Raiding Cultures against other Native American Tribes and the US Government provided protection to the only peaceful tribe from Indian Raiders.
Don't hear what people tell you, it's misinformation and you don't live on that era. It's all history.
People with radical minds like to make fire for forgetting history and bringing it up again. It's contagious.
@@quqbalam5089 Yeah, no. If slavery was a founding principal of the nation, why did we fight a war to end the practice that cost 600,000 American lives?
@@ArthurRex131 Those 600000 dead americans include many black americans. The country didn't give back their freedom, they had to give it up. Neither should have had to be done in the first place.
"they had to give it up." ummm...what the hell are you talking about? No one forced Blacks to give up their freedom after the Civil War. The 14th and 15th Amendments were added to the Constitution specifically to ensure no American was ever made a slave again. Not to mention the US Military was fully integrated after the Civil War, up until Woodrow Wilson resegregated it before World War I. ANd of course it shouldn' thave happened in the first place. No one is saying it should have. Regardless, slavery never was and never has been a founding principle of the United States. Anyone who thinks so has no real knowledge of US History,
I love the laundry list of things Americans don't have anymore at the start. And we've followed dutifully in your exact same footsteps... god help us all.

75 years old and still hits the mark !
WOW, if only cartoons were still like this I would let my son watch TV. If we had a real media in this country, instead of big government shills, this is the message people would be getting. We are galloping down the road 2 serfdom in America because too many have fallen for the "ism" of 'change' and 'security'. America's never been perfect, no country can be, but the system of individual enterprise and limited government we used to have made us the envy of the world, now we rush to squander it.
- In comparison to the farmer, politician, capitalist, and wage worker, the man selling the "ism" potion had a brown, melanated complexion. He is the intruder from "elsewhere," the oriental. Take note of his stature in comparison to those around him.
- @ 6:41, take more notice of each particular nation and how the United States perceived each of them at the time (1948). The individual second from left has his hands in his pockets, making him appear devious, or sly. He is facing forward, which could represent movement and the belief that this country is "developed" and progressing. The third individual (USSR) is looking up at the US in an envious manner, or with a competitive gaze. His hands are behind his back, exuding confidence and control. The fourth individual is front-facing and has its hands extended outward. Is it dependent or neutral...or both? The fifth individual (Arabian Peninsula, maybe?) is also facing front-facing. In comparison to the rest, he is significantly undersized. The sixth individual (China) is looking the other way, with his back turned and his head tilted upward in a scornful, haughty manner. Could also represent US perceptions of China as a backwards country at the time. The final individual is seated with his arms crossed. He is facing forward, but he is portrayed as stubborn, stagnant, and, to an extreme, idle. With his cheeky grin, hidden eyes, hidden hands, and crossed knees, the individual representing the United States is rather obvious.
Of course, given that this is classic Cold War propaganda, I wouldn't expect anything less.
Nice analysis
While you could possibly claim that Mr. Utopia looks a bit foreign (allthough this is not really that obvious since he doesn't speak with any non-American accent), nothing about him looks even slightly oriental. If he is not only meant to just be a generic American gangster his hat gives way more of a Italian or Hispanic wibe (which make sense in the way that Italian Americans was overrepresented in organized crime in the US at the time). And why do think the sixth figure represents China? Because his money stack is way to high to be China, which during this time (1948) was indeed one of the poorest countries on Earth. Why I can't really say what country that guy he is meant to represent, that mustage gives more of a central European wibe, so it's more likely he is meant to either be Polish, German or Swiss. So you are overinterpretating things to an absurd degree here.

Joseph Stalin
+Colossians 2:8 Yeah, destroy patriotism with multiculturalism, morality with, dunno, this suckers this days, i cant even tell what is wrong and right anymore, and their spiritual life, i also don't know, atheism maybe? The thing is that america is being destroyed, and sadly under your very own eyes and you cant do anything about it because you have lost the three things that held you together as the great America this once was, or at least promised to be. I myself am not american, but i feel for you people and your nation, that cost so much to your founders and that represented the American Dream which was a beautiful concept indeed, it is very sad, i even feel to apologize, sorry guys, may God be with you and your families, and with us too, for what is to come to everyone of us outside america and in this world.
“I’ll take this to the Supreme Court!”
_“The state is the Supreme Court!”_
What’s the difference in this one lmao
The Supreme Court can overrule the President, but the President can't overrule the Supreme Court.
Even if a Justice is in the same party as the President, they can choose to say no.
But "The state is the Supreme Court!" means either there are no actual Supreme Court because the President decides everything or the Supreme Court is only filled with the President's "Yes-man".
BlazeofGlory again, what’s the difference between this and the current state of politics in the USA?
@@storm2666 he just said
@@storm2666
The difference is that the Supreme Court still maintains the pretense of not being a partisan activist body, though this pretense has been damaged by the "There weren't riots back then" allegation regarding the election.
the president has overruled the Supreme Court on many occasions, actually.@@EmperorTyrael
If I’m being honest, this conman is a humanized king dice with wheezy’s nose
8:28 - 8:45 My favorite line in this very video. Still use it today. If you'd add in Sex Hatred as well then it will be truly spot on to what's happening today.
If only feminism wasn't the most hateful movement around
Television was publicly demonstrated by its 21 year old inventor philo Farnsworth. So much for t.v. not being invented in '29
Looks familiar!
At 9:03, they bury it. "Working together..."... "for all". No, each working for his own prosperity is what built America and made it great.
This wasn't a commentary against communism or socialism. It was against fascism. It merely applies to communism and socialism, as well.
Freedom consists of this: Authority over your own life, and Responsibility for your own life. When you have both of these, you are as free as is possible.
And in the end this is what WE The People need to do !

Cant wait for that smart grid. That way they can tell us how to set our thermostats!
There is actually a movie of Soviet era propaganda that was on Google at some point and a lot of it sounds like what you hear from American college Marxists. Essentially, the point of anti-American propaganda seems to be to point out all the short comings of America while never examining the thought system of the propagandist. This cartoon is the opposite of that in that it points out the positives of our system while giving scant criticism to the isms.
Ever heard to old saying that you: "Fight fire with fire"?
Seems to have forgotten that capitalism also ends in ''ism''.
@@legrandliseurtri7495 capitalism isn't a system of thought. It's simply free market economics
i can't help but notice a paradox here: expressing the message of freedom through indoctrinating means.
To quote the only rapper I'm a fan of, "The truth doesn't damage points of view that are legitimate."
Freakin awesome cartoon! Thank you.
From 1948, animators Bill Hanna and Joe Barbera warn against Obamanomics, and Comunism, and touts the benefits of Capitalism, and Freedom, in a hilarious, yet inciteful, cartoon.
Mencken, sad to say it's becoming mandatory here in the U.S. as well. It's called RealID, and is slated to go into effect this April. There are already several states banded together opposing the measure. Unfortunately, my state isn't one of them - but I'm refusing their damn card until they catch me with an expired drivers license, or the measure goes down in flames, whichever comes first.
8:55 Literally Antifa every time somebody fights back.
This is great
Wow its like they could see into the future
Exactly. And just because you're "fat" doesn't mean you're rich, especially in industrialized first world countries... rather, it just means that the poor people here are eating more processed fast/cheap-produced foods rather than being able to afford natural healthy food. A country like Chile never had a problem with obesity until fast-food was introduced there, and now the obesity level sky-rocketed.
What can you say about this video? At the core root, I'm glad it pointed out some great things about our AMericanism. But it's sort of slated towards Capitalism.
We wouldn't have any of our tech without capitalism
lol 'god save the queen' is the intro to a US nationalist cartoon wtf
It's My Country Tis of Thee, same tune,
The US has always been more British than the British themselves.
It's comes from one ye olde popular English drinking song.
Same source for both. Song swam across the pond.
@@dianerovedo5537 It was originally a song written for the return of King Louis XVI to court after recovering from an illness, and then later became the national anthem of about 60 different countries.
@@accessyourinnerlight971 17 countries, not 60
please, gentlemen, stop arguing. We, all of us, including our subjective beliefs of how we should be governed, being silenced under those who would choose for us what tyrannical government we will be subject to the world over. We must unify under simple notions of freedom, such as being free to enjoy life under the condition of never infringing on another's freedom, health or business.
We need to learn how to be compassionate not condemning and idiosyncratic without violently disagreeing.
That freedom of speech example at 1:12 is pretty accurate
Some guy Disagree And Criticize Other dude opinion And they got into Arguement
Message is good ... yet I think its unrealistic in how good it makes capitalism look and bad it makes communism looking neither is perfect. Neither is completely flawed. Its strange how they warn you against internal fighting and pitting one side against another at by the end of it all that is clearly the very goal of the cartoon. To unify one group to resist another.

"With only 7 percent of the world's population, we drive 70 percent of the world's automobiles."
Isn't that part of the problem?
8:29: Mrs. Palin would do well to remember that tidbit before she starts calling parts of America "the Real America(TM)" at the exclusion of other parts...
"Do you seriously think that an electric car with no lubrication will last as long as any vehicle we have today? It's called friction."
You are correct. Few moving things will last long without lubrication. However, an ICE has hundreds of individual moving parts. An electric motor has only one - the rotor shaft bearing.
This cartoon is hilarious for a variety of reasons. Anti-capitalist political systems did not pretend to be friendly to wealthy industrialists or to established politicians. Also, the "John Q Public" guy at the end claims that the "ISM" salesman was trying to turn them against each other, but at no point did the salesman actually do anything of the sort. To the contrary, he was promising to unify everyone. Funny how in our present day the worker and the farmer have been screwed by the other two.
13 years late, but good points about how the salesman is trying to unify everyone, and the guy after says he's trying to divide them. Maybe the idea was that the salesman represented different ideologies at once? It's weird.
This movie was shown in history class. The USA was even more insufferable back then, clearly.
The message is that the sales man was giving them snake oil. It wasn't gonna help and he just told them what they wanted to hear. The contract showed what his true intentions were, which is a reference to the devil's attempt to get you to sell your soul. Farmers and workers are being screwed over by progressives and activists. Wages dropped when we encouraged women to enter the work force and then they dropped even more when we allowed mass immigration. Government regulations also hurts the middle and working class. Government ruins everything
Pretty good critique of state capitalism, not gonna lie
