I know he's crazy, but i wouldnt think he's David Irving type crazy.

seroiusly, i do not think he denys the Holocaust. but it is interesting that Nazi Crimes were not discussed by Beck. wheras Crimes commited by The Soviets were.

OK, so nobody mentioned it then.

Glenn Beck is a Holocaust denier, in that he denies the true scope and significance of the Holocaust and trivializes the deaths of millions by comparing anything and everything he doesn't like to Hitler and the Nazis. Or like Lewis Black said, Beck has "Nazi Tourette's."


Playing the Nazi card every time you disagree with him, or calling anything and everything "a new Holocaust" or "another Holocaust", or otherwise comparing relatively minor political differences to the murder of millions and millions of people? Holocaust denial, as far as I'm concerned.

It's called the reductio ad hitlerum fallacy and Glenn Beck is for me the Face of it. So I can see where you are Coming from. I still do not think he would go to the lengths of David Irving. Who is just an absolute Nutcase. There is a difference between trivializing the event and flat out denial. (Although i will say that Both approaches are sick and disgusting. )

Here's a little excerpt from Beck's own Website.

"We all know about the horrors of the holocaust where the pure evil Hitler inspired claimed the lives of millions of innocent people. But most do not know about the millions upon millions of lives lost in a different genocide of the Ukrainian people under the Stalin regime" http://www.glennbeck.com/content/articles/article/198/35425/

The section of the programme that i answered to was not about the Holocaust, but instead where Hitler comes on the Left/Right scale.

If you want a little taste as to the Crimes that Beck didnt want to Talk about.
Watch this. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CjIJsBE9eqE

Be warned. It's shocking stuff. and quite graphic.

Glen Beck is a monkey throwing his own shit around. The best course of action is to step away from his cage. Just ignore the simian simpleton and stop giving him an audience for his antics. If someone tries to quote his idiocy to you feel free to rebut it, but don't go watching his program just to see his next shot of ballistic feces.

Rob him of his precious attention and he'll whither and die. The only way I'd watch Glen Beck is if they put him in a cage match with Sarah Palin.

If only things were that simple, In many ways. Beck reminds me of this. only he's less articulate. But dangerous all the same.

Your Beck v Palin fight doesnt seem like a bad idea after all.

The problem and danger with Beck is that he is actually a good speaker. What he says makes absolutely no sense, but only to people who are able to overlook the rethorical smoke bombs he is throwing around and get at the actual things he is saying. Many people are not able to analyze any kind of speech critically, thus will not notice the BS he is claiming.

The hallmark of a propagandist

once you start chipping away at certain parts, you'll quickly realise the whole intelectual structure to be weak and the whole thing falls down after proper scrutiny.
