Scary but Funny

I watched an interesting video the other day. Usually YouTube videos are funny, that is the main purpose for YouTube in my opinion. They are meant for entertainment and to get a laugh out of you, not to be informative, or scary for that matter. This video that I watched was the scariest thing that I have seen in a long time, but through all of this, I couldn’t help but laugh at the man.

The name of the video is “Project 912 Glen Beck Tea Party.” Now this may not sound like a scary video, but it truly is. It is not about monsters or aliens or anything of that nature, it is about people. It is about a get together of people who want to express their ideas and feelings. I think that to attend one of these parties, you should have to pass a test to make sure you are not clinically insane.

This video does not start out like anything out-of-the-ordinary. It does not have nay action or anything like that. All it is, is people talking about politics. Politics in itself is a scary thing because many people have bad ideas, and many people have the power to put those bad ideas into affect. What makes this video even scarier is the fact that this guy is being completely serious. He is not joking in any way, and he truly thinks that everything is a conspiracy and he blames the communists. If I was to say this anywhere, at anytime (I’m not saying I even could, I couldn’t keep a straight face this is so ridiculous, and I'm not alone), I would be laughed at.

Scary might be an understatement. He blames communists and he blames mind washing techniques that are brainwashing our children. I’m sorry, but this is ludicrous. Get past the Cold War, move forward from the Stone Age, please learn to live in the present. I can’t stand people who hold true conspiracy theories of the 50’s to find a scapegoat for today. Just because we are going through hard times does not mean that one person is responsible, that one idea was wrong, that one mistake lead to the whole disaster. Learn to accept reality and please, if you have ideas that might even resemble these, do not share them with anybody, you might get laughed at.
