Jimsolo wrote:Glenn Beck is a political commentator here in the states. He is very conservative. Internet chat forums, and gamers in general, are predominantly liberal. This tends to lead to a skewed view that 'everyone hates so-and-so'. Although he has many detractors, he has many supporters as well. He has had six best-selling books, and a very successful career. I'm not saying I support the man, but trying to claim that 'everyone hates him' is erroneous. (Although understandable, especially on the internet, where all appearances indicate that statement to be true.)
For those not in the know, Glenn Beck is a member of the LDS church (Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints) and typically takes views that are polarizing and often extreme. Some hold that these are views that need to be held, and that he is a valiant defender of our country's traditional moral value system, while others accuse him of promoting religious propaganda and fear-mongering. (Which in this case means using fear as a tool to get someone to agree with your social or political agenda.)
In America, it is popular to refer to someone as a 'Nazi' even if they are not a member of the Nazi party. Traditionally, the use of the term 'Nazi' in this case means someone who is utterly evil. It is usually used to describe a perceived 'evil' individual who is promoting a racist/descriminatory agenda, although it can be used to describe someone who is just promoting an extreme ideal.
So, hope that clears up some confusion.
Thanks for the explanation, here in Spain we have a full Tv channel full of potentials "Glenn Becks"... i see, that extremism is everywhere XD, the conjugation of State-church is one of the greatest Gaks of many coutries....

i think some of you need to listen to Glenn Beck instead of just taking someone elses word for it. all he is interested in is keeping individule liberties safe from what seems to be turning into an over extended and somewhat oppressive government.

I sometimes watch his show and I believe he has our best interests at heart, however, can he present it in a way that includes just a little less mudslinging?

If you're watching any kind of political opinion show you should really expect some mudslinging.

well nazi is short for the german translation of "national solcialism", and i can think of a few people in the current administration who think socialism is a good idea, we just havent the overt racisim that nazi germany exhibited yet. maybe this is a topic that would be better discussed in another thread? by no means do i want to hijack thop's thread.

All of you glenn beck writers are OT bad who cares anyway it's spose to be for fun not a debate.
Chuck Norris got crabs from Smurffette. And contracted GonnaSyphaHerpleAids from kissing Gorgan and he basically lost 150lbs due to Meth. Come on he's a dude with money right? he used to kickass, now he's like Ali no punch or job.(no offense to Ali he is still a psychological God) but beck is a comic political analyst who has no real grasp on life. everything he says has been said before.

Hmmm - I totally agree with the post on page one of this thing calling for 'Sleeper Service' to come and pwn some BFG ships with its cloud of sub-totality AI warships. But from the same story, wouldn't it be cool for the Affront to get what they always wanted and get dropped in the 40k universe? Who'd have the spikiest ships then?
EVA unit one vs titans? Assuming it's in the evolved state where it doesn't need a very long jug cord...
Chuck Norris would be hunted down by the Ordos as a dangerous mutant - check that third fist under his beard
But of course the show would be stolen utterly by a bunch of guys who could tell the noise marines how to do it right, and who come with their own suitably grimdark vehicles, base and army of cowled assassins... our beloved masters Dethklok.

OK - the Ad Mech can cream their cookies over unit one and send it out to beat up nid bio-titans - kind of its original purpose! I just love the idea of the conversation -
Lord of the Forge - "So, where's the guns? Plasma annihilator? Vulcan mega-bolter? No?"
Ikari - "Keep guessing" (does that mr burns thing with his fingers)
Lord of the Forge - "Volcano cannon? Missile launchers? Oh - I know... both its hands are power fists, right?"
Ikari - "Nah, we thought it would be more fair for the enemy if we just gave it a little pocket knife..."

Like it ever uses it. IIRC it was really only used twice. 4th and 8th angel.
Most of EVA battles: run up to it; punch it face in an awesomely epic way! Resulting in awesomely epic explosions / gore fest! Case and point: 12th angel. That episode was also very stimulating to my thinking parts!
