Negative Political Cartoon


This comic is illustrating the carving of Adolf Hitler and the Asian ruler during World War II into the side of a cliff.  This cartoon is illustrating the fact that if Americans do not support the war effort by buying saving bonds and stamps, communism will will and take over America and thus, "liberating" America.  During the 1940s, American's were extremely anti-communist and they felt that it was a disease that was spreading throughout Europe and the world and that it is America's duty to stop communism at all costs.  Also, near the bottom left of the picture is a flag pole with the Nazi flag flying over the American flag essential depicting the thought of communism conquering America's democracy and freedom.
