Rightardia comment: The video shows Glen Beck's abysmal lack of knowledge of US history is displayed again. During to World War 2, the US was an ally with the USSR. Many of the really good artists were communist or socialist like Diego Rivera who painted a socialist mural inside a Rockefeller building. Rockefeller had the mural painted over. The movie Frida provides some insights of what the 1930s were like.
The metaphor about beating swords into plowshares is from the Bible. Beat your plowshares into swords, and your pruning hooks into spears: let the weak say "I am strong." — Joel 3:10. There is nothing conspiratorial about this statue.
Usually when the right wing starts ranting about art, the statues will be vandalized or and the owners will remove the pieces to protect them. The next phase will be to attack subversive literature. Then the book burnings will start. This has happened in other countries.
If you thought Glenn Beck's conspiracy theories couldn't get any more bizarre, you obviously don't watch that much Glenn Beck.
This time Beck is taking shots at the titan of American capitalism, John Rockefeller, accusing him of having been a secret communist. Beck knows this to be true because he has discovered all sorts of "communist" and "fascist" art on NBC headquarters at Rockefeller Center, as well as on land behind the United Nations that was donated by Rockefeller.
Beck beleives that Rockefeller was an early American progressive, which means he was a communist, a fascist or both!
He knows this because Rockefeller left clues to his legacy with communist art pieces which are in plain sight. Beck's icing on the communist cake is that the Rockefeller Foundation honored Beck's latest target, Obama adviser Van Jones. Got it?
