Anti-Japanese propaganda

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

US Office for War Information, propaganda message: working less helps our enemies

Anti-Japanese propaganda was used to dehumanize, antagonize and create fear of the Japanese people, Japanese nation and/or Japanese culture. It was a common place in the United States, China during World War II. It was designed to help sell war bonds and was coupled with anti-Axis Powers propaganda.

It was ignited into greater heights after the attack on Pearl Harbor.

There are war propagandas against the Japanese by the United States during the Pacific War and by the Chinese and Koreans among other countries. Sometimes there is anti-Japanese propaganda in China and Korea largely because of the Japanese military invasion of these countries during World War II.
