Glenn Beck opposes communism....then praises one (MLK)

[leeuniverse]

MLK was NOT a "communist", he was a Conservative Republican with some slight liberal (i.e. communist) leanings. Basically, you could call him a Bush Social Conservative, with some slight differences in the subject matter. Glenn Beck be RIGHT! Further, it is true MLK wrote the Forward to that book, however the book and story in question is FALSELY represented. It was a story about blacks defending themselves against the KKK. The guy posting this video, Liberals, Commi's, etc. All LIARS! :(

[newart2004]

What??? MLK was not an admitted communist. Where the hell did you hear that from?

In fact what he actually said when was asked if he was a communist is "there are as many Communists in this freedom movement as there are Eskimos in Florida"

This uploader really need to gets his facts straight. Hell, a basic wiki search would prove how wrong you are.

Oh and "Negroes With Guns" was about arming blacks so they can fight against the KKK.

Educate yourself.

STOP praising MLK! STOP the political contradictions! You can't denounce Marxism and simultanously praise a man who was a very apt practitioner of Marxist/Ethno-national political rhetoric. MLK directly contributed to the passage of unconstitutional laws and radical judicial opinions that fundamentally changed the right to contract and conduct business in this country - these policies are frankly hurting white people, and it is time they were exposed. Beck is an idiot.

The none-violent Nuge? Ted can shoot a pagan God out of the sky with a pitch fork shot out of his 12 string dbl. neck guitar, on stage, to the beat of "Paralyzed"!

It is political suicide to denounce MLK......social thought control at work.....although I do respect what MLK did for civil rights in general.

[Jsledge85]

@kishaba1980 That has got to change. MLK was truly a Communist. He was prejudiced against whites and a morally degenerate person. We have a national holiday for a man who crafted articulate words into a message designed to appeal to northern liberals in order to feed the white majority proverbial arsenic wrapped in a beautiful candy wrapper. MLK made the white majority pursue policies which were not in its own self-interest, and from the prospect of a political scientist, irrational.

[kishaba1980]

@Jsledge85 allthough, I agree MLK was a communist,immoral sex degenerate.....However, I'm not a big fan of the Jim Crow laws of the time........And I'm not judging MLK by the color of his skin, but the content of his charecter...

[Jsledge85]

@kishaba1980 I agree, but (1) Segregation should have been allowed to die a natural death (for valid reason to lengthy to enumerate); (2) The Warren Court knew Plessy v. Ferguson was the only logical interpretation of the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment, it had to engage in unabashed judicial activism to rule on Brown v. Board of Education; and (3) The Civil Rights Act of 1964 directly produces the multiculturalism and big government conservatives loath.

[Jsledge85]

@Jsledge85 By the 1960s there were virtually no lynchings in the South and African Americans were slowly but continously rising through the social hierarchy. The civil rights movement, of that time, was a response to the perceived failure of the federal government to not become more actively involved in the promotion of "social justice" (i.e. African Americans believed they weren't advancing fast enough and were therefore entitled to preferential treatment).

[nevaseenamancry]

lol Toward the end about abortion. Black people are definitely against that because they know more babies = more welfare. That's basic math to them.

[nevaseenamancry]

Beck is just trying to win over black people for the GOP. All the politicians and people are so fucking fake.

FOX News has a little bit of truth, which most won't admit. I get called a nut for just saying so, but I am more observant to see the obscure truth!

[TrayWiks]

Mlk was not a communist do your history and communism is not rights for all it is rights for some people like Kkk and nazis. Mlk was a right wing republican that was for capitalism

[howthefagworks]

@TrayWiks no he wasnt he was an american hateing communist and a sexual deviant

[csilva85]

@howthefagworks - Ok, we get it...you are probably happy MLK was assassinated....So if socialism benefited the wealthy American aristocrcacy, then you would love it, right???

[merchan5967]

@TrayWiks You're dead wrong. King did not speak favorably of capitalism, and while he rejected communism because of it's totalitarian nature, he did express sympathy for socialism. Many of his inner circle were socialists and a couple were former communists. King was also a big supporter of economic aid to the poor, ehich beck has said repeatedly that he opposes. King and the SCLC were even on the Radar of the House Un-American Affairs Commitee.

[whotookmypiewtf]

@TrayWiks mlk was a right wing republican? LOL wrong.

[tedmccarron]

Generally Glenn Beck is really awesome, but this praising of MLK crap has to stop. Beck needs to be called on this one. I can understand prominant conservatives not wanting to touch the MLK legacy, but outright PRAISING of the Commie King? No way! If I ever meet Beck this subject is getting brought up! I'll be at his march in DC on August 28th, and I'll hold a "MLK was pro-Communist" sign.
