Re: Thomas Sowell: Ferguson protest ‘hands up, don’t shoot’ ‘lie’ like Joseph Goebbel

:lamo Yup. Totally are.... Totally comparable.

Like I mentioned earlier, take the time to read about Goebbels. He was a man who saw himself as a victim. With victimhood often comes self hatred. He lived with deformities the results of polio. He had a contempt for the human race in general and the Jews in particular, and his complete cynicism were an expression of his own intellectual self-hatred and inferiority complexes, his overwhelming need to destroy everything sacred and ignite the same feelings of rage, despair and hatred in his listeners. As history shows he was quite successful. The tactics that stirred the rage and anger in Ferguson are right out of Goebbels' how to book.

yes I am serious.
Goebbels' techniques in propaganda are what they are. Whether it be to exterminate a race of people or to be used in propaganda to promote racial divide and unrest as in Ferguson.

Throwing up Goodwin's law does nothing but remove you from the debate so why participate in it at all?

Terry didn't make the comment Sowell did. The real debate is what Sean Hannity said, and I have to agree with him:

“Why are members of Congress repeating something that they know is not true?” . . . . . . .

Because they are damned liars, just like President Pinocchio.

I'm not going to waste anymore time with you. Do yourself a huge favor and head over to your public library. Educate yourself on Goebbels' propaganda techniques and then maybe we can have a meaningful discussion. Cheers!

I love it. You know this "techniques" and yet you want share them with a simple explanation. All it is, is "go read them", "he hated Jews and therefore Ferguson protestors used the same techniques".

After WWII, and the discoveries at the German and Japanese Interment and War-Labor camps, and the starved to death bodies stacked like cord-wood, the civilized nations of the world sworn an oath to "Never Let it Happen Again".

So, 50 years later, some Jerk Progressive-Fascist makes up this Propaganda sound byte called "Godwin's Law", to make an instant Mockery out of any who tries to actually invoke and LEARN from the History of the Nazis, and the mistakes we made in the years prior to WWII.

So today, the Obama-Executive and his crew of Fascists, are allowed to run rough-shod over the U.S. Constitution, and other branches of Government, and in places like Syria and South Africa, the Genocide continues, while the "Civilized" world ignores the crimes.

Well, to hell with the Lefties and their Propaganda tool of "Godwin's Law".

If we cannot learn from history, we are doomed to repeat it.

I've learned!

Ah yes, Godwin's Law (which actually wasn't properly invoked here) is a "leftist propaganda tool." You're something else sometimes. Not sure what, but something else.

Conservative partisan hack makes comparison of Democrats to Nazis. What the **** else is new. More feces in the gutter of conservative discourse.

Not a thing under the sun. It wasn't even new when the Democrats were doing the same thing to George W. Bush. That was just more in the gutter of liberal discourse. #selectiveoutrage

And to think those bodies were stacked up like cords of wood over someone first repeating lies over and over again till the masses believed it to be truth often using catchy phrases. Hands up don't shot. Same concept. Goebbels 101

But it's easier to respond in this way than to wonder whether there is a gap in your knowledge, seek to fill it, and try to recognize that perhaps the other fellow might have a point.

And just for fun, here's what Alexander Pope actually said: "Where ignorance is bliss, tis folly to be wise."

I think this quote applies here and that all you're doing here is pearl-casting.

Re: Thomas Sowell: Ferguson protest ‘hands up, don’t shoot’ ‘lie’ like Joseph Goebbel

Given the circumstances, I don't get the comparison made to the Nazi propagandist...

... but the whole "Hands Up Don't Shoot" thing is a retarded lie; the Congressmen echoing it are despicable.

 

[TerryOfromCA]

Re: Thomas Sowell: Ferguson protest ‘hands up, don’t shoot’ ‘lie’ like Joseph Goebbel

Given the circumstances, I don't get the comparison made to the Nazi propagandist... ...

The comparison is the tactic of telling a big lie, and telling it often, and eventually enough of the masses will believe it. Liberals have used that tactic on so many issues, like abortion, gay marriage, immigration, spending. . . . the list is endless.

. . . . . ... but the whole "Hands Up Don't Shoot" thing is a retarded lie; the Congressmen echoing it are despicable.

Agreed.

Re: Thomas Sowell: Ferguson protest ‘hands up, don’t shoot’ ‘lie’ like Joseph Goebbel

Yeah, in context, it's used appropriately.

Host: “Why are members of Congress repeating something that they know is not true?”

Guest. “Oh, for political reasons. I thought of Joseph Goebbels’ doctrine: People will believe any lie if it’s repeated often enough and loud enough. They’re repeating it often enough and loud enough. And it will pay off for them personally and politically. People who are out to forward their political careers say and do things that have no relationship whatever to reality or to anybody else’s interests but their own."

It's not really saying THESE PEOPLE ARE NAZIS. It's trying to apply a quote or a paraphrase, a sentiment. I don't think such a quote is 1:1 what Joseph Goebbels actually said, however, if we care to get into the nuances of Nazi quotations - which I really, really don't.

 

[TerryOfromCA]

Re: Thomas Sowell: Ferguson protest ‘hands up, don’t shoot’ ‘lie’ like Joseph Goebbel

It doesnt matter if he is a conservative, liberal or communist...the fact is that the whole "hands up, dont shoot" rhetoric was and is...a lie.. . . .

Correct. THAT is the point.

But Liberals in this forum, true to form, want to ignore the facts and attack the messenger.

Well said. Some people hear the word "Nazi" and get all wadded up. The Nazis employed certain tactics which were, sadly, quite effective. Democrats employ many of those same tactics.

Because politics, at least in our society and currently, is no longer about truth, it's about perception of truth.

Re: Thomas Sowell: Ferguson protest ‘hands up, don’t shoot’ ‘lie’ like Joseph Goebbel

Who the hell cares what Thomas Sowell has to say about anything... The Ferguson story is months old, its time to move on.

Now that some time has passed and the emotionalism has waned, it's time to at least attempt to take a fresh and objective look at it. We don't learn anything if we simply cave to the emotion of the moment then dismiss it like it never happened.

Unless, maybe, we don't want to look at it objectively. That's always a possibility.
