Today I came across an old video of a cartoon from 1948 called "Make Mine Freedom." The quality is not the greatest, but the message is crystal clear. First, the video and then a little commentary: It's funny to think today that even at the height of capitalist propaganda versus communist propaganda, people were ashamed of being capitalists.
