EVE Online: Glenn Beck: Goonswarm a CIA Front

SBFordSBFord Former Associate EditorMember LegendaryPosts: 33,129

Sometimes the words simply must speak for themselves. American political pundit, Glenn Beck, has spoken out suggesting that EVE Online's corporation, Goonswarm, is a CIA front. Take a listen and judge for yourself.

    Been saying it for years that Mr.Beck is an insane piece of work, and has no business anywhere NEAR a microphone let alone a public access forum such as a TV show or Radio show :|.

    For the most part, I like Beck. But the thing to know about him is that he is one hell of a troll. He often likes to start stuff just to start it.

    GB is crazy, but there were several posts about how one of the murdered in Bengazi was an EvE player and had commmented about it on EvE, just before or during the attack.

    Who is crazy?

    "political pundit"?  thats an interesting way to characterize this nutjob.

    Controversy creates ratings, truth be damned, as long as lunatics like Glenn Beck, Rush Limbaugh, and Bill O'reilly get people to listen they are doing their "job".  Americans are suckers for a train wreck and these goofballs provide a new one for the weak-minded to watch on a daily basis.

    Right, it just means it is most likely not true...

    Remember folks, extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence.

    Ah great, here's the first step on this threads slide into hell. Because of course there are only irresponsible sensationalism jockies on one side of the political spectrum, and of course they only exist in the US.

    Yes, I hope folks don't get too lost in the Goonswarm "affiliation" but interesting..

    Surprised to see this even up here really.

    PM before you report at least or you could just block.

    Couldn't possibly agree more strongly! He has proven time and again to be literally insane, it's sad commentary on america that there's a segment of american society that actually hangs on his words like they were the utterances of some kind of enlightened-master, it's just like people in the dark ages listening to the village lunatic, thinking their snake-handler god was speaking through him! He is in very obvious need of strong psychiatric drugs and serious professional mental-health help. His paranoid delusional-ism, untreated as it so obviously is makes for such a very sad sick commentary of american "society"...

    Couldn't agree more strongly, you're absolutely correct! He and his fellow-travelers are insane paranoid-delusional propaganda artists at best.

    Lets remember he was one of the first to call for a " Tea Party " movement and it land slided Nov. 2010 and may have the same effect this coming Nov. There might even be an officer pormotion in GoonSquad for Berry if he wants it.

    Hey Tardcore the last slid in your signature is off by 10 years, 2023 1/2 is when GW2 will start to lost interest. I know trend haters like you hate this type of news, but you will be OK, I am sure...

    I can't believe I listened to that.  But some of what he said makes zero sense.

     

    Beck said the guy posted to the game site was asking for help.  But if he had internet access and was a CIA agent, why not just send a coded email to the agency?

     

    Also, the thread title is totally misleading.  He's claiming the EVE player was in the CIA, not that the Goons are a CIA front.

    The biggest retard on radio says something stupid?  I'm shocked.  Anyone who likes him immediately is my enemy, that kind of stupidity cannot be allowed to flourish unchallenged.  Same if you like bill oreilly or sean hannity or rush limburger.

     

    It's not that he's any crazier than the above, he just has a hard time containing it.
