When Ginsberg talks about the propaganda he witnesses on American T.V., he switches to a more sarcastic, uneducated, and childish tone. Instead of addressing Russia the proper way, he utilizes incorrect grammar. He says “The Russia wants to eat us alive. The Russia’s power mad…her wants our auto plants in Siberia...Him makes Indians learn read.” (78-83). Ginsberg addresses Russia as ‘The Russia’, an incorrect address, but it drips in sarcasm and childish way of saying things. It’s also ironic how when he says “him makes Indians learn read”, he portrays the propaganda as uneducated, because they used incorrect grammar in ‘him makes’ and ‘learn read’ and makes it seem as if learning is a bad thing. This irony in propaganda being uneducated yet stirring fear about learning further criticizes America of being childly afraid of things like communism due to their ignorance. Allen Ginsberg critiqued and judged America in his poem “America”. He expresses his personal beliefs and ideals, while at the same time condemning the American Ideal. He uses diction and sarcasm to expose the irony and fallacy in American ideals, and the childish and uneducated motives behind
