I can't believe that in a video that speaks of people comming together. There are people arguing over political parties. Who gives a damn about an ass and an elephant were suppose to be coming together as a species. George washington didn't even want us to have political parties and that's the truth check his memoirs its one of his last 3 warnings
And you are a new onwner of the stolen land of palestine? you are clawn and land eater. Also take your stupid comment to your AIPAC bosses to get the job in finance industry ... to feed your greed more hahaha

the kind hearted comments on this page annoy me because i know most of them are spur of the moment lies.. what this man says is true however i garuntee it cant happen not till humanity is cornered by evil like a cat we dont know when to fight or what till our backs aghast tot he wall
instead of posting something negative about the loss of life from 9/11, i would much rather post something like this to my facebook that could give us all hope that we all become one under our Higher Power. doesnt matter your religion. doesnt matter your social upbringing. doesn't matter your income or views on politics. 9/11 had WORLD WIDE implications, so with all respect, instead of "God Bless the USA" i say "God Bless The World". This whole planet needs God's Love... not just one country.
I wonder how many people have seen this clip, but have no freaking clue what the context is and they're like "why is charlie chaplin dressed like hitler and talking about love? This is creepy..."
This made my day: Soul-stirring and refreshingly candid - I'm moved and profoundly surprised by the vision it shares with the Baha'i Teachings. This is the message I have been brought up with my whole life.
I believe there are many intelligent life forms in our universe. I think nearly every one of them has to struggle with the prospect of self destruction at some point in their progression. This is partly due to the fact that competition seems to be a necessary element of evolution. Some don't make it and end up destroying themselves. A few do make it. They slowly learn the importance of replacing the drive to compete with cooperation. They understand the wisdom ol' Charlie is putting down here.
Well said, but entirely hypocritical - Chaplin was a Stalinist his entire life. What did he know about democracy? There are many other anti-nazi films that aren't tainted with Stalinism. From "To Be or Not To Be" to "Springtime for Hitler" -- even the Three Stooges are morally superior to Chaplin because they included Stalin in their axis parodies. (At the end of one film, they had Stalin standing on his head -- bravo!)
@SonOfMrGreengenes I believe that this "removed" comment claimed that Chaplin only spoke words written by others. In fact, he wrote, directed, and produced the film, as well as starred in it. I would have trusted the film much better if there was a reference to another mustachioed dictator, the one who called himself "the marshal of all the workers of the world."
Masterfully articulated but intellectually immature. Which system is it that enslaves us? Only the unloved and unnatural hate? Hate, greed will pass? Less thinking and more feeling?? This fanciful, idealistic vision is about as empirically grounded as "the second star to the right."
@deyc3 Until it's not. Things change. Imagine what you'd have said, in days gone by, if someone supposed to you that men might someday be lead not by kings, but by political representatives that the citizenry voted on. Talk about fanciful nonsense. And yet...here we are.
Easiest one of the best speeches in the history of cinema, and one of the most honest, sincere and powerfull calls to reason that to this day is still as relevant as it was in 1940. He doesnt just speak against facism, but against the folly that plagues manknd in general, at any time, in any system, and most of what he says can just as well apply to nations as to simple individuals.
If only people would listen to this, to reason instead of listening to hate and anger, what a world it would be
Then we have given a reason to start a war. We are filled with a passion to protect the lie. Government does not work. When you allow people to have excessive power, greed takes over their minds. If you learn the Laws of the Universe which define the laws in our religions, expands on the strength we have with actions of Love. When do we rise up against a government? When our bellies are empty and clean waters are depleted. Care now as it happens to others, because you will be next. UNITE!
In all sincerity I would like to point something out that most do not see. Yes, it's a passionate cry for the right to life. But, anything that cries out the word "fight" so passionately, as a solution is still not the answer. Just as Republican, Liberal and Democrat were presented to us to give us the sense of free will. Socialism, Communism and Democracy were created the same. All set a line and require that it be defended to the death! Fight for your Right! A popular cry. It's a LIE!
Stating the obvious there Charlie.....yet the vast majority of people on this earth are retarded gimps who can't think or see for their feckin selves! Humans are twats generally. FACT!
how in any way is this communism? did u even listen to what he said? or read the info box? Seriously, people like you make me really pissed off in the world.

Some observations.
.
1. Ironic to hear such a powerful oratory from a guy who gained fame in a long career in silent films.
.
2. Chaplin's shoulders and body are disproportionately small for the size of his head.
.
3. I'm surprised he didn't squeeze something into that speech about making it acceptable to chase jailbait.
.
Just sayin'....
