Description:

http://www.hanlonsrazor.org This is the climax to the 1940 Charlie Chaplin film "The Great Dictator". While not completely applicable to anything today, I still find it very moving.

Chaplin had the mustache first, Hitler, though did not really admire Chaplin, knew he was an icon of his time, and thought he'd win some popularity himself by using his mustache.

As for your question, misterkempeitai, Chaplain had the moustache in his first film in 1914, but I think Hitler did at that time as well. Of course Hitler was unknown in 1914, so any link between the moustache I think is purely coincidental.

Sometimes it's better not to say anything at all when you don't anything good to say about something.

He gave this speech when the US' policy of isolationism was keeping them out of WWII. It was specifically a call for America to join the war. And of course after the war he was basically chased out of the country for being a suspected communist.

The only thing is that many think will relate Chaplin's ideals to the imperialistic U.S ideal of world police. In other words, I love the speech, but I find our "democratic" policies as debastating...

This is powerful! He showed a lot of courage to do this! I wish the US was more like this now. Hopefully we can grow into this attitude.
