A YouTube video of a Texas professor comparing the rise of the tea party in the United States to the rise of the Nazi Party in 1930s Germany has drawn criticism from conservatives online.

In the video, filmed during a Nov. 17 lecture, Blake Armstrong

Ah the professors!

Yes, the professors!

[Uncle Miltie]

The tea party are like the Nazi's (sic)

Apostrophe in the original title.

"Journalists" are like 3rd Graders.

I have more proof.

[Bryanw92]

Up to a point, he’s right. The Tea Party are nationalists (but not socialists) who are devoted to saving their country from transnational communists and foreign debtors that have infested the bloated bureaucracy of a once-great nation. Beyond that, he’s full of crap.

[Salvavida]

"Is" like Nazis. Noun/verb agreement, idiot professor.

And we are more like the Sons of Liberty than Nazis. And he is a perfect candidate to tar and feather.

[Talisker]

No, the professors are like Nazis.

Disagree with them and see for yourself.

[Old Yeller]

Psychology - so we know he’s nuts.

[DiogenesLamp]

National Socialists? Nah, that would be you folk.

[gov_bean_ counter]

Maybe Shakespeare had the wrong vocation in mind...

[Blue Jays]

The professor achieved Godwin's Law of Hitler/Nazism status in record time!
Why of course people who feel taxes are skyrocketing too high are just like a historical murderous madman.

[uncitizen]

Bttt

[Cincinatus' Wife]

But note how he tells the class not to say that he told them.

[dead]

University professors are like douchebags.

[mylife]

“Don’t tell anybody I said that, though. ‘The tea party are like the Nazis.’”

To late dumbass.

[huldah1776]

Source comments for example. I’m not surprised. People think God’s laws are hateful, but people don’t know what real love is.

[VanDeKoik]

Number of Nazi-like acts of terror by the tea party: 0

Number by the various leftist groups in the past 30 days: HUNDREDS

[Talisker]

Nationalism doesn’t mean the same in America as the rest of the world because of the Doctrine of Negative Rights.

To be an American Nationalist is to support the innate rights of human beings as superior to government.

No other nation is based on that concept. In fact, it flips the common meaning of “nationalism” on it’s head.

[gundog]

If he means poised to take power and strike fear into the hearts of their enemies, then I say good on the TEA Party.

PEOPLE SHOULD LEARN ABOUT GODWIN's LAW
