During World War II, the U.S. government utilized posters extensively to communicate various messages to the public, fostering patriotism and warning against the influence of foreign ideologies. The poster "FOXY foreign ideas brought poverty, suffering and defeat to Europe. Let's stick - faithfully - to our Americanism over here" was created to promote Americanism and caution against foreign ideologies perceived as threats to American values and stability. This poster, produced by the Think American Institute, featured vivid imagery and strong language to convey its message.

The Think American Institute was a patriotic organization dedicated to promoting American values and ideals during a time of global conflict. The institute's work was part of a broader effort to bolster national unity and resilience against external influences that were seen as detrimental to the American way of life. The imagery of the fox, often associated with cunning and deceit, symbolized the perceived threat of foreign ideas infiltrating American society and causing similar devastation as seen in Europe during the war.

The message of the poster was clear: to avoid the fate of poverty and suffering experienced by European nations, Americans should remain faithful to their own principles and reject foreign ideologies. This type of propaganda was crucial in maintaining national morale and ensuring public support for the war effort, emphasizing the importance of unity and vigilance against external threats.
