Answer:

advertising wants you to buy a product, while propaganda wants you to change your attitude

Step-by-step explanation:

this is true. advertising wants you to buy a product (for example, an ad for paper towels of course wants you to buy paper towels). propaganda however wants you to change your attitude about something. if you see a war propaganda poster for example, it's very likely that poster is pushing you towards a certain attitude about the war, such as supporting it.

advertising is NOT always sweet and easy. it can be hard, especially since ads and companies often compete against each other

propaganda still happens so it's not just historical and is NOT usually posters anymore like it was in the past.
