Why the hate? He's been quoted as literally calling himself a rodeo clown that was given his own show All he is is someone who is exaggerating who he is to unbelievable levels. He's a comedian who is taken seriously because lol viewers of fox I'm pretty sure his admission is just shy of him admitting that he is a troll

    CRIMINAL SCUM!
    How ironic. I was JUST watching Jon Stewart's 11/3 project.

    I used to likd Glenn Becm, but my grandpa and my dad stopped watching him.

    Then a few years later, he's apparently some crazy nut. Fucking party system, can't we have some normal people in politics for once?

    But you never had any to begin with.
    I believe being a "normal" person and "wanting to become a politician" are mutually exclusive.

    Which is kinda bad. You know, given that politicians can hold the lives of millions of people and entire cultures in their hands.

    The thing I think drives people up a wall about Glenn Beck, is that he portrays a genuine conspiracy nut on TV.  One that's surprisingly otherwise sane, intelligent, and likeable.

    So you're left with the following choices to react to him:
    * You can trivialize him as insane, claim it's all just an act, etc., which plays into his - and Fox News' - hands, because his followers believe there is a conspiracy to trivialize everything that's not politically correct.
    * You can admit you think he might not be completely insane, in which case you are trivialized.

    I suppose that is pretty much the definition of "polarizing".  But I still think he's fascinating.  More so than, say, Sarah Palin or Donald Trump.

    Because you never know what you might see.
    He's been flanderised in my head into "the guy who cries on TV at the drop of a hat".

    Saigyouji is right on this one.
