Overhyping threats means more money | Joel Pollak talks partisanship of “hate monitoring” groups

Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden recently made a comparison between President Trump and the Nazi-German era propagandist Joseph Goebbels. 

A report featured in Politico gives an outline of Biden's remarks: 

Trump is “sort of like Goebbels,” Biden said, invoking the name of Joseph Goebbels, the mastermind of Nazi Germany’s propaganda machine. “You say the lie long enough, keep repeating it, repeating it, repeating it, it becomes common knowledge” among voters...

I think people see very clearly the difference between me and Donald Trump,” Biden said. “Trump is clearing protests in front of the White House that are peaceful, you know, with the military. This guy is more Castro than Churchill.

On a yesterday's edition of The Ezra Levant Show, Breitbart editor-at-large Joel Pollak joined Ezra to discuss the overuse (and subsequent cheapening) of the word “Nazi,” and how political supposed hate monitoring groups are: 

The word “Nazi” has been cheapened to the point where even Jewish organizations no longer complain when someone misuses an analogy to the Holocaust. When Joe Biden compared Donald Trump to Joseph Goebbels, the Nazi propaganda minister who was Hitler's right-hand man and chief anti-semite, nobody complained. The Anti-Defamation League offered a weak statement several days later but they didn't mention Biden by name. 

In contrast when Donald Trump was asked to denounce white supremacists at the first presidential debate, and he did so, they said he didn't do so strongly enough.

They circulated a petition to get Jewish organizations to oppose Donald Trump. Now they watered it down significantly after we blew the lid off it... They removed the name Trump from the petition but they retained the substance.
