   This example of propaganda is trying to persuade people to donate blood. If they choose to donate blood, they are like a superhero, like Spiderman, saving someone's day. Superheroes are looked up to, so if you donate blood, it is as if you'd be looked up to, too.

   The maker of this piece of propaganda wants the people who see this to donate blood. I think this piece of propaganda is testimonial because they're using spider-man who's a popular superhero. I think this piece of propaganda is beneficial because it'll get people to donate blood to those who need some.

   This piece of propaganda is being used to convince people to donate blood. They're using a popular character, like a superhero, to bring interest to the cause and become a superhero as well. The slogan "you can be someone's superhero" is simple and effective. This example of propaganda is beneficial because it's bringing attention to a good cause.

   The author of this piece wants people to be persuaded to donate blood. He does this by using Spiderman and showing how super heroes donate blood. This could make it more appealing to some people. They also use the word "superhero" to convey the message that if you donate blood, you could save someone's life and be a superhero to them. The picture is not harmful. It is using it's propaganda to try to get people to donate blood which could save someone's life.

   In my opinion this advertisement actually works in most people, because they make them feel like superheroes because they're saving someones life, so it makes us feel like doing it because we're helping people in need and it is always good to help people around us, and even more if this could save them from death.

   The maker of this piece most likely wants the reader to help other people by donating blood, since they are in need of it. The specific propaganda technique in this would be testimonial because they are using a well-known and heoric figure to show that they are helping someone. They use this because if people see that a figure that they admire is doing a deed like this, then they will most likely do the same by following in that person's footsteps. This is definitely beneficial because the person is convincing you to do a good deed for someone who is in serious need of help.

   This piece of propaganda has a well-known superhero donating blood for a good cause. This wants you to donate blood and help save someone's life. The techniques that are used is transfer. Transfer is used in this poster by having a televised superhero, Spider man, giving blood. He shows that giving blood isn't that hard to do, so it should not be hard for a normal person. This piece of propaganda is beneficial because it promotes something good with a hero that everyone knows. Giving blood is heroic to the people that receive the blood and some people do not realize that. This propaganda poster shows this to everyone.

   I think this is very beneficial propaganda especially since it's all positive. It's talking about superheroes and saving lives. People will often donate to a cause when they have a connection to the cause. Also, I think superheroes are very effective in promoting something when they're heroes, positive and save people.

   This one doesn't strike me as too much propaganda, since it's just taking a saying, "you can be someone's superhero," and providing an associated image to go with it. Purely beneficial, as donating blood leads to helping others who need it.

   I think this is beneficial propaganda because it doesn't lead people to false conclusions, but rather tells people that they are a "hero" if they do something that is life-saving, which many would argue is true.

   It is propaganda because it is not presenting any real information about donating blood only comparing it to a superhero. I think it is beneficial because donating blood is a really important thing to do and the reason why people donate is usually not because of disagreeing on principle with donating but instead lack of thinking about donating. Its just good to get people thinking about donating.

   This is clever piece of beneficial propaganda as it compares the act of giving blood to being a superhero. It's appealing to everyone, but there is no real information involved, yet still good to spread. This piece can inspire people easily and a reference that the majority of people know.

   This is beneficial propaganda because it encourages people to see donating blood in a different light and maybe be more encouraged to do so. It uses people's emotions by appealing to the side of us that may want to be considered extraordinary, like a superhero, and does so by showing spiderman's arm.
