RUSH: It does, you\u2019re right.<\/p>\nRUSH: Here\u2019s Kevin in Green Bay. Hi, Kevin, great to have you here.<\/p>\n
CALLER: Hey, sir, how you doing?<\/p>\n
RUSH: Very well, sir. Thank you.<\/p>\n
CALLER: I\u2019m 24 years old. I just graduated from college at a public university, and I was just hired this summer as an elementary school teacher. And my question to you, from my perspective and growing up in public education, it just seems that liberalism has complete control over our education system from the bottom all the way to the top.<\/p>\n
RUSH: It does, you\u2019re right.<\/p>\n
CALLER: And why? Why is that the case? It seems that nothing has been done about that.<\/p>\n
RUSH: Well, leftists are activists. This is a strategy, Kevin. Liberalism, communism, socialism, if you want the answer to that, you really have to do — you don\u2019t need to go too deep — a peripheral study of Marxism. And you\u2019ll learn that Marxism, leftism, liberalism, they have long-term strategies for taking over and controlling whole populations. It is their objective.<\/p>\n
It is about denying individual liberty and creating a collective with a top down command-and-control government and economy. Conservatives are individuals and not activists at all, and so there is no such strategy to bend, shape, and form a country.<\/p>\n
BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n
RUSH: And we are back now with Kevin in Green Bay who has just graduated from university, becoming a teacher, and he\u2019s asking how the left has ended up with total control of education. What you\u2019ll learn, Kevin — and I\u2019m gonna give you a little brief overview here because it will be helpful for everybody — Marxism is what has seduced American liberals — well, liberals worldwide, communists, all leftists.<\/p>\n
The fundamental purpose of Marxism is the total control of a population under the belief that individualism and free markets lead to great disparities and inequalities and injustices and unfairness. Now, this is the outward appeal. Marxism is evil, and Marx knew it, but the appeal that seduces people is its justice and equality and fairness. What they don\u2019t tell you is the equality is spread equally to the point everybody\u2019s miserably equal and miserably the same.<\/p>\n
But the key to education that you\u2019re asking about, ever since Marx, leftists have known that the simplest, direct way to controlling a country is via education, the news industry, and health care. Those three things. If you, as a leader or as a member of a leadership organization can succeed in taking over those three things where only kids, young people, only learn what you want them to learn, they learn how horrible freedom is, how unfair capitalism is, how mean-spirited, all of this, how wonderful equality and egalitarian is. Whenever there is a communist invasion or revolution, the news outlets are the first things seized and then the schools and then health care.<\/p>\n
![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/RushFlagCultureWars-B.jpg\")
Because with health care, once you set yourself up as the source for people\u2019s health care, not insurance, you own them. That way you have total control over how they must live in order to qualify for health care. And that\u2019s what Marxists want. Marxists and leftists do not trust individuals. They have contempt individuals won\u2019t do the right thing, the right thing being defined by what Marxists want.<\/p>\n
Now, conservatives, on the other hand, they don\u2019t want to control anything. We believe in individualism, self-reliance, rugged individualism, and we trust people that in free markets and free circumstances they will do the best to improve themselves and their families. We want as few controls on them as possible. We love everybody, and we want the best for everybody, and we believe people should be free to use whatever talent and ambition and desire they have to achieve whatever they want.<\/p>\n
We recognize there\u2019s gonna be winners and losers. The communists say that\u2019s not right. There shouldn\u2019t be any losers, and they set about trying to create circumstances where people think nobody will lose. But everybody loses under communism. They eventually have to build walls around countries to keep people in, as in the Berlin Wall.<\/p>\n
So they make it an objective to control education, because that\u2019s how they control minds, that\u2019s how they control countries, that\u2019s how they control populations. We conservatives, on the other hand, we don\u2019t like to control anybody, and we\u2019re not even activists. We just leave people alone. We figure if everybody has the same morality and the same set of values and is focusing on the same basic human things using God-given human freedom, that things are gonna work out fine. That\u2019s what this country has demonstrated is true, and that\u2019s being protested this very day. It\u2019s not fine; America\u2019s unjust, unfair, and all these things. That\u2019s the fight we\u2019re in the middle of.<\/p>\n
CALLER: It\u2019s just concerning because I see so many people my age and younger who are just buying into the liberal philosophy that\u2019s being taught to them in education and —<\/p>\n
RUSH: Right. Right.<\/p>\n
CALLER: — children are so vulnerable.<\/p>\n
RUSH: It\u2019s easy. It\u2019s easy, Kevin. I\u2019ve always said that liberalism is one of the most gutless choices you can make. All you have to do to be acknowledged as a good liberal is to see suffering and tell people you see it, and that will convey you have a big heart and that you care and that you\u2019re troubled. Also, these people, without exception, these young people you\u2019re talking about, how many of them think that they\u2019re victims of something?<\/p>\n
CALLER: (laughing) Oh, man.<\/p>\n
RUSH: They all do, right?<\/p>\n
CALLER: A lot.<\/p>\n
RUSH: They\u2019ve all been taught they\u2019re victims of something, and it\u2019s usually something to do with America\u2019s unfairness.<\/p>\n
CALLER: Yep.<\/p>\n
RUSH: Well, that\u2019s part of the plan. Once you convince people that they\u2019re victims, you really own them because you\u2019ve just told them that whatever problems they have in life, it\u2019s not their fault. And then you\u2019re telling them they can\u2019t fix them by themselves. Look at your life. Your life sucks. You\u2019re a victim of these people here, you can\u2019t fix it. You need us looking out for you. “Us” being the Democrat Party in this case, the people that go out and get votes.<\/p>\n
It\u2019s hideous, Kevin. I\u2019m glad you\u2019ve spotted it. You\u2019re 24. It is all about control. Look at what\u2019s happening on campuses for free speech. They\u2019re literally, literally limiting what people can say, under the guise of preventing people from getting hurt feelings. They are limiting constitutionally protected speech to save people from being offended or hurt. And so, denying people freedom is portrayed as a wonderful thing. That\u2019s how they seduce people.<\/p>\n
And then these people eventually become warriors for the cause, social justice warriors, and they begin espousing beliefs and everything that they have been propagandized. And it just cycles this way. So your 24-year-old buddies, they probably got the first dose of this at home. It starts even in kindergarten now and day care.<\/p>\n
So people like me talk to people like you and hope you hang in, hope you do not get seduced or fall for it or succumb to the pressure, \u2019cause the pressure\u2019s gonna be great to get you to abandon this stuff that you think. They\u2019re gonna calling you names. You\u2019re gonna be racist, gonna be a pig, gonna be sexist, you\u2019re gonna hate women, you\u2019re gonna hate blacks, you\u2019re gonna be anti-transgender, whatever. They\u2019ll come at you in all directions to force you into acquiescence.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
