If a Communist shouts “Down with nationalism!”, he means the hypocritical bourgeois patriotism that sees the economy only as a system of slavery. If we make clear to the man of the left that nationalism and capitalism, that is the affirmation of the Fatherland and the misuse of its resources, have nothing to do with each other, indeed that they go together like fire and water, then even as a socialist he will come to affirm the nation, which he will want to conquer.

This is the secret of propaganda:
He, who is the target of propaganda,
should be completely immersed in the ideas of propaganda,
without him ever noticing, that he is being immersed.

Das ist das Geheimnis der Propaganda:
Den, den die Propaganda fassen will,
ganz mit den Ideen der Propaganda zu durchtränken,
ohne dass er überhaupt merkt, dass er durchtränkt wird.
