Why did the US intervene in the Korean War

Licemer1 [7]

The USA went to war in Korea for three reasons.

The first reason was the ‘Domino theory’. Salami tactics in eastern Europe was not the only place where Communists were coming to power. In the Far East, too, they were getting powerful China turned Communist in 1949. Truman believed that, if one country fell to Communism, then others would follow, like a line of dominoes. He was worried that, if Korea fell, the next ‘domino’ would be Japan, which was very important for American trade. This was probably the most important reason for America’s involvement in the war.

The second reason was just to try to undermine Communism. President Truman believed that capitalism, freedom and the American way of life were in danger of being overrun by Communism. The Truman Doctrine had been one of ‘containment’ – stopping the Communists gaining any more territory. In April 1950 the American National Security Council issued a report recommending that America abandon 'containment' and start 'rolling back' Communism. This led Truman to consider driving the Communists out of North Korea.

Finally, Truman realised the USA was in a competition for world domination with the USSR. By supporting South Korea, America was able to fight Communism without directly attacking Russia.

Hope this helps.

Why are forms of political communication (bias/propaganda) both harmful and useful?

LuckyWell [14K]

Answer:

First, what is propaganda? When is propaganda most used, and why? How can I tell the difference between harmful, or beneficial propaganda?

Explanation:

1.) Propaganda: Information, especially of a biased or misleading nature, used to promote or publicize a particualr political cause or point of view.

In simple terms- Changing ones opioion, point of belief or view with misleading, and untrustworthy word.

2.) Propaganda is most commonly seen durning war, protests, political debates, and social controversies and difficulties. Meaning, when it pretains to public appeal, or in other terms, when the people are to choose. ( Like, in America. Propaganda, is used durning Presidential elections.)

<h2> Propaganda is most known for its impact in World War II </h2>

3.) It can be very hard to tell the difference. However, propaganda, is built upon lies and misleading information. So, fact check. This way, you can see whether or not you are being misled. Most importantly, don't let what you see, read, or hear sway your ideas and beliefs on someone or something

Harmful- easy to sway the publics' ideas and opinions through catchphrases, pictures, fake news, lies, and the agreement of popular social figures. Easy to paint any picture.

Ex." Loose Lips, Might Sink Ships"

This is harmful propaganda, as it is threatening those who see it.

Beneficial- Encourages morale, promote a better enviorment. Is not asking you to do something for personal gain of another. Encourages overall.

Ex. "Rosie The Riveter"

Rosie was a powerful woman figure during World War II, used to improve the morale of women to work in factories, in order to keep up the economy, money, and agriculture, while men were in the battle. A strong female character who encouraged women to work in war production, their patriotic duty was to save America at the time.
