MTV on Fascism
What’s going on with MTV?
Here are two promos from their THINK campaign that got me thinking: WTF MTV?
Some YouTube comments, inevitably perhaps, argue that this is merely the malicious agency of the Jewish conspiracy at work. Others, that becoming a fascistic state that rounds folks up with dogs and guns isn’t a pressing concern.

Holocaust, Holocaust, Holocaust, Holocaust, Holocaust, Holocaust, Holocaust. Always remember, never forget! Holocaust, Holocaust, Holocaust.
Isn’t that the real message here? Dramatizing and putting the Holocaust in a modern context to draw more sympathy for Jews while Israel continues to kill and maim children in Gaza.
Wake-up folks.
MTV = propaganda for the kiddies

The holocaust happened to people like us. Think.” I’m going to skip the rant on this part. Anyone with a brain can see that it’s stupid. America turning into nazi germany is the least of our worries right now!!!!!!!
When I’m about to seriously abandon hope HelloKittie413 interjects in the otherwise disconnected comment thread on these entirely bizarre spots:
The Holocaust was horrible! Six million jewish people along with a myriad of others (gypsies, homosexuals, etc) were exterminated. I completely understand that and I think it was an atrocity.
But when are other atrocities going to be given the same amount of importance?
How about:
The genocide going on right now in Dafur
The Rwandan genocide
The “Disappeared” in El Salvador
The victims of Khmer Rouge
The Native Americans in the US
Getting rounded up on Calgary Transit for being a “faggot” or a “pacifist” doesn’t seem so bad when one thinks about the very real and very current injustices that don’t have to be dramatized in a slick MTV spot.
Or maybe I’ll just watch The Hills.
