True or false is propaganda is always negative?

False. Whether or not certain propaganda is negative would depend on the interpretation of the individual who is experiencing it. Again, false. Take the Avatar film for instance, some people 'complain' that it's "environmental propaganda"... wtf? Is it not universally agreed that destroying the environment is a bad thing? Doesn't avatar show just that? Avatar promotes saving the environment, so how is that BAD? The short answer is, it isn't. On the otherhand, take army propaganda: obviously there is much dispute over whether joining the army is a good thing or not. Most would agree that propaganda as such is negative. Again, propaganda can be bad, but also good. It could simply be defined as "a pursuasive message", if you think about it.

What does it mean if someone calls you two-faced?

It means that they are saying you take both the positive and negative side of an issue. You are positive when you think it is good for you to be for something and are negative when you think it's in your best interest to be against it. Some people are two faced on the War in Afghanistan. They are for it sometimes, and they are against it sometimes. When we are winning the war they are for it, when the news in Afganistan is sometimes bad, they are against it.

Is advertising propaganda?

Yes, propaganda is defined as information, ideas, or rumors deliberately spread widely to help or harm a person, group, movement, nation, etc.Just because most people think in terms of the negative meaning of the word, the simple definition is that propaganda is the spreading of ideas. Ideas can be good, such as 'please recycle', 'buy American', or 'read to your children'. For individual products or services, appropriate advertising (propaganda) can increase sales and provide more jobs for the advertiser.

well the propaganda signs made people think differently of their enemy than they did before. the signs gave the impressions to the audience that the enemy were evil and bad, making more people disaprove of their enemy and show more hatred and agression. propaganda was a way to get more people on a side for help against their opposistion.
