The history of the efficacy of the propaganda used by both the "Axis Powers" in WWII and the Allies in WWII would tend to conflict with your model, insofar as I understand both sets of data.

"Rosie the Riveter" was a purely government-sponsored fabrication, and yet women signed up to work in factories by the thousands as a result of said campaign. German introduction of anti-semitism literally introduced the practice in Japan -- beforehand the Japanese people had a view of Jews that was quite the opposite (i.e.; that they were a 'superior people') ... which is why before the German/Japanese alliance got fully implemented, the Japanese had an active recruiting campaign for Jewish persons.

There are a vast swathe of such examples from that era. None of these techniques are effective today. See: "Tobacco is Whack-o", "This is your brain on drugs", etc., etc..
