        Under Hitler and Stalin, you got "social justice". As long as you were Germanic or Russian (respectively) and did not dissent to the regime in the slightest. If you happened to be different, or offer a differing opinion, THAT'S when you lost your "social justice".

        Now who is it that has a big problem with civil rights, and most recently homophobia?...Oh? Conservatives? are you sure...because Beck said...?

          sort of like how theses same jokers wanted Amercians to act during the Bush years. These hipocrytes said dissent at that time was unpatriotic and siding with the terrorists. Illegal wiretapping of amercians, no problem, breaking the Geneva Conventions, no problem. Giving up our rights for a sense of security, no problem,
          But that was then.

        Weren't they part of Nazi "separate but equal" system? Or am I thinking of the "sanctity of Teutonism" project? I know they were big proponents of the "don't ask, don't tell" policy, and didn't like the state-run health care they were forced into.

      These 'fireside chats' by Beck are downright creepy. If he wore a sweater like Jimmy Carter, it would be creepier.

      Sooooo...social justice and democracy are Nazi/Communist concepts? Oooooookay...

      Do you think it's starting to sink in with any of Beck's regular followers that this guy is just stark raving cuckoo?

          Yeah where the heck is this going? I hope he continues to attack the CHURCH helping people. That'll really bring the crowds in. He's the worst Mormon I have ever seen! Setting aside magic plates and all, they DO read the teachings of Jesus, don't they? Whutthefudge?

            Some Beck fan can explain, truly, can't they? Is thesis ALL government is bad and anything but total freedom is bad(Unless you're gay or a woman or wanting an abortion or want to smoke pot or something, right, of course)? Seriously - are Beckians buying this mangled history lesson? Surely some of you can see this sham - please explain to me waht I'm missing here.

      Good God, Beck gets crazier by the day! The Nazi's were big on social justice????? When they put Jews in the ovens was that "social justice"? When they killed gay people was that "social justice"? When they murdered the handicapped was that "social justice"? Beck is insane! Does this clown even know what social justice means?
      Oh and I liked the fact that, at the very end of the clip, he said that both the Nazis and Communists also talked about democracy. OMG that must mean that anyone who is FOR democracy is a COMMUNIST NAZI!!!!! PANIC! PANIC! PANIC!! Down with democracy! It's Communist & Nazi inspired!!! Why oh why can't we have a military dictatorship so that we can live freely!! LOL.

      So now "social justice" is the Great Evil? Progressivism is Naziism? The sad thing is people believe this trash. Lots of them. The damage done by this kind of rhetoric is going to take a generation to dissipate, you all must realize this.

      Riiiight, Glenn. That's why Jews wore yellow stars, and homosexuals wore pink triangles and so forth. So the SS knew who to hand out the 'social justice' to. Right.

      I'm beginning to believe he can't really be this dumb. I have a hard time believing houseplants could be this dumb!
