So, not to be obtuse, but why is Glenn Beck such a lightning rod? I don't see anything supporting people's dislike of him here, except for playground-type insults.

Personally, I don't have cable so I don't watch him, but I lump him in the same category as Keith Olberman and Chris Matthews. I think all of them have some useful information but you have to filter the source for bias, same as any media.

Glenn Beck says the fans of Che, Castro , Hitler, Stalin and Mao should watch the show today to learn the history of these "heros" they don't teach you in the schools.

The Revolutionary Holocaust
http://www.glennbeck.com/content/articles/article/198/34922/

Revolutionary Holocaust airs Friday, January 22 at 5p ET on the Fox News Channel...

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('', 'A') groundbreaking hour long special where Glenn Beck takes us back in time to examine the roots of socialism and communism and the evil that followed. 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. This special also takes a look behind the iconic fashion symbol of Che Guevara showing that the myth doesn't tell the story of the man who was a blood thirsty killer. We meet a family who saw first hand what a monster the man was. They know the cost of communism and you will too when you hear their story, and who can forget about Mao Zedong? A leader responsible for 70-million deaths during his reign. All communist. All killers. We will show you things you've never seen but need to.

Will this include the extermination of the native population of the American continents to help build capitalism? Or are the slave trade and its descruction of significant parts of Africa, or will this be covered next week?

[dorlomin]

Will there also be a special on the British East India company and its destruction of the Indian textile industry to allow nacent British industrialisation competative with Indian labour, and the theft of the subcontinents wealth and the usurption of its labour to produce drugs (namely opium) to force (it took two wars) the opium onto China to generate enough profit to help make white Empire profitable.

Just curious, seems a little onesided otherwise.

[eastbay]

.... or the millions of Arabs killed in The West's quest for power and oil? Or the Jews slaughter of Palestinians?

Or how about the strong chance most of what Beck will talk about is plain old fabrication and exaggeration?

[Revi]

All the isms wasted a lot of people.

That was part of the 20th century. We figured out how to kill people at a rate unheard of before then.

Communism, capitalism, what's the big difference?

Che Guevara quotes you won't see on T Shirts..................



"The blacks, those magnificent examples of the African race who have maintained their racial purity thanks to their lack of an affinity with bathing, have seen their territory invaded by a new kind of slave: the Portuguese."

"The black is indolent and a dreamer; spending his meager wage on frivolity or drink; the European has a tradition of work and saving, which has pursued him as far as this corner of America and drives him to advance himself, even independently of his own individual aspirations."

"The episode upset us a little because the poor man, apart from being homosexual and a first-rate bore, had been very nice to us, giving us 10 soles each, bringing our total to 479 for me and 163 1/2 to Alberto."

"The first person we hit on was the mayor, someone called Cohen; we had heard a lot about him, that he was Jewish as far as money was concerned but a good sort."

"Mexicans are a band of illiterate Indians."
