It's not really possible to take glenn beck seriously once you can see through all the bullshit fearmongering he does, but overall no, it doesn't seem to be racist, I couldnt really figure out what the green puppet was even supposed to be, sure he said establishment, but the whole puppet show logic made so little sense. Exactly how he wants it so that first everyone is afraid of 'it', then he tells them what the 'it' is....

We should just keep a permanent thread called "Glenn Beck is an idiot" where we can constantly have updates showing what an idiot Beck is.
But I think my head my explode if I read that thread.
I hate this man.

Is Beck insinuating that the Tea Party is controlled by powers above? Because, the "establishment" and the Tea Party were both puppets controlled by the same guy. So either he's an idiot and it's an analogy fail or else he thinks the Tea Party and the "establishment" are both controlled by some upper unseen power.

That guy is pretty annoying and the puppet show references are ridiculous. But "quantitative easing" isn't great either. Can't win in the states, eh?

Great read, although being rational never really has a place in political discussions.

To the OP, no I didn't find it too racist.
Chance favors the prepared mind.

I don't. My parents watch Glenn Beck everyday and this was on when I walked into the room.

I wouldn't be caught dead watching Fox News.

Just remember that his hands were in all of the puppets.

Bill Hicks becomes disturbingly relevant again.

Glenn Beck is a fucking idiot.

He is worse than a regular pundit on Fox/CNN/MSNBC because he doesn't just take the information from the world and distort it - he actually creates his own conspiracies/worries/issues and then attempts to incite his audience to react to those things that he just created.

Like this puppet show thing. I watched 60 seconds. What does it even mean, "the hand behind the puppet show"? That's such an absurdly vague, paranoid, and immature concept. This guy seriously just needs to quit the entertainment industry, go to college, and take an ethics class so he knows that it's NOT OK to deceive thousands of viewers into thinking they're the victims of a nonexistent malicious American government.

It honestly doesn't matter what my views are. I just hate the way this guy presents. It is disingenuous and deceitful, and a lot of people who don't have time to do a lot of reading into politics take him seriously. It is completely irresponsible to the American public.

I'm happy you took the time to answer the OP's question. Well done.

I like how you added the word "fucking" to the person's statement you quoted. It really gave you credibility.


u might want to check to see if the original person edited their post..

it would be extremely odd for someone to quote a post and randomly add the word "fucking" to it

Thanks Travis, I was a bit confused myself when I read that xD

What? Does this guy actually exist? I've seen him once or twice on the Daily Show being made fun of, but I didn't think his entire program was conducted at this absurd a level. I would like the program a lot if it was meant to be comical, but he seems absolutely serious

It's hard to tell whether he's really this stupid, or if he's just using the public's fear to make himself a millionaire.

4 years ago he was funnier and he kept his opinions on point with reality =/ I used to think his show was actually worth watching...

I don't think this is racist at all however. It's a green puppet representing the establishment... Maybe he's trying to hint they're aliens!

You know what? Let's look at the friggin' puppet show guys and stop overlooking the fact that the puppet to the right of the screen is a black caricature puppet!!! Just stop it! you all know what it is and you know that it is by no means subtle. Beck is a racist pig. I watched that entire session and had to wake up my wife at 3am (who is Puerto Rican) and ask for another set of eyes! She and I were both appauled as she said, "You know what that is, fool! This is Glen Beck and no one is going to stop it cause they are gonna act like it didn't even happen!"

What is equally as irritating is the fact that as I read your responses, most of you have chosen to basically write this Bull Sh** off as mild or non-existant. Some of you even pled ignorance! How!?! If you have ever picked up a history book or even called yourself an American you know that this is an outright racist representation of a black person...most likely, Pres. Obama. This is crazy!! Unless you live in some remote area of the world, you know d***n well what this puppet represents and whom it is intended to represent. Stop turning a blind eye to this racist fear mongering fool!!!
