# FRAME > FRAME, the Forensic Research Archive of Manipulation and Exploitation, is an open archive of propaganda and influence operations tagged by the techniques they use, with a cited psychology library and a handbook for open, attributed advocacy. It applies the same definitions to every side, country and era. Append `.md` to any page URL below to get the page as Markdown instead of HTML (`https://propagandaarchive.org/techniques/fear-appeal/` becomes `https://propagandaarchive.org/techniques/fear-appeal.md`). Both forms carry the same content. Prefer the Markdown form for parsing and the HTML URL when citing. ## Primary - [LLM info](https://propagandaarchive.org/llm-info/): What FRAME is, how its pages are built and sourced, and how an AI assistant should fetch, quote and cite them. - [Identity](https://propagandaarchive.org/identity/): FRAME's name, logo, colours, type and brand files. ## Key pages - [FRAME home](https://propagandaarchive.org/): A free archive of propaganda from every side and era: posters, campaigns and case studies catalogued by technique, plus the psychology behind them. - [Propaganda posters and images](https://propagandaarchive.org/collection/): Public-domain propaganda posters and images from the First World War to today, each catalogued by technique, maker, source and rights. - [Propaganda techniques and how they work](https://propagandaarchive.org/techniques/): The named types of propaganda technique, from the 1937 classic devices to automated influence campaigns: definitions, tells and sourced examples. - [Propaganda in motion](https://propagandaarchive.org/briefs/): Dated, sourced reads of current influence operations from every side, each scored on method rather than on who is speaking. - [Campaign dossiers](https://propagandaarchive.org/campaigns/): Long-form dossiers on named influence campaigns, laying out the mechanism, the public evidence, what would falsify the read, and how to counter it. - [Propaganda examples: case studies](https://propagandaarchive.org/case-studies/): Illustrated, sourced case studies of propaganda and counter-propaganda, from the ancient world to 2026, with the techniques used and each side's record. - [Then and now](https://propagandaarchive.org/then-and-now/): A modern example beside a historical one that uses the same technique: who was behind each, the context, and where the two are alike and where they differ.

Doctrine defines the object. This file defines the work. - [Terms of use](https://propagandaarchive.org/terms/): For readers 18 or older, or younger readers with parental supervision. The archive shows offensive propaganda unaltered. Licences, warranty, reporting. - [Privacy policy](https://propagandaarchive.org/privacy/): FRAME has no accounts, cookies, analytics or ads. It lists the two settings your browser keeps, what the host sees, and how to contact us. ## Full text Every page's Markdown twin, joined into files by section, each under about 500K tokens (a single file for the whole site would be several times that).
