I\u2019m so glad that you had time to wait. Thank you, sir.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Hey, how you doing, Rush? I was just calling to get some thoughts on your chat with Charlamagne the Great, and I think that you have a real chance to actually make some substantive progress on race relations in general because I think a lot of this whole white supremacy is manufactured by the media. I think it\u2019s continually pushed by the media. I\u2019ve honestly never met a white supremacist. I\u2019ve never met racist people. I think you have a chance with Charlamagne tha God to go around the media and get straight to the consumer. You guys both have a huge audience. And I think that it\u2019s easy to blame something such as something that really is tough to pin down on what it actually is &#8212;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-350728\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/APP-060120-Breakfast-Club-99-c.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/APP-060120-Breakfast-Club-99-c.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/APP-060120-Breakfast-Club-99-c-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/APP-060120-Breakfast-Club-99-c-480x270.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>RUSH: We had some people call yesterday, Andrew, that told me they heard the conversation I had had with The Breakfast Club people, and they said, &#8220;You misunderstood. You didn\u2019t hear \u2019em when they were talking about white supremacy.&#8221; And maybe not. Like you, you say you don\u2019t know one, you\u2019ve never met one. I\u2019m a literalist, I\u2019m the mayor of Realville. White supremacy to me means somebody, a white person who thinks that they\u2019re better, that they\u2019re superior, that the white race is superior based on DNA, based on science.<\/p>\n<p>I think that\u2019s crazy. I don\u2019t know anybody who thinks that. I\u2019ve never met anybody who thinks that one race is superior. I know they\u2019re out there, but they\u2019re kook fringe lunatics. They\u2019re not mainstream at all. And for the mainstream media to try to claim that white supremacy is the current mind-set of the white population of the country is dangerous, it\u2019s destructive, but more than that, it\u2019s just not true.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: I think also, you know, it\u2019s not as white supremacist as you think it may be or some people may think it may be or the media wants us to believe it is. I mean, if you look black culture dominates American society. I mean, you have black athletes that everyone looks up to, a black president, black music. It\u2019s not systemic racism, but I think that\u2019s an easy way to the media &#8212;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-341430 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/APP-033020-Realville.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/APP-033020-Realville.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/APP-033020-Realville-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/APP-033020-Realville-480x270.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Well, you know, speaking of that, can I ask, where are Oprah and Obama in all this? I mean, if the desire is to quell the violence and to get it to shut down, and there are people in the African-American community who are looked up to and admired and could maybe help stop, where are they? I mean, because you\u2019re right. African-American culture has become highly dominant, and it\u2019s not new. It has been dominate in pop culture for a long time.<\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>This is Sherry in Ocala, Florida. Great to have you here. Hello.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER: Hi. Yes, Sherry from Ocala. You were talking about yesterday with Charlamagne tha God about white privilege and white supremacy. I don\u2019t understand that, considering my son is a white male trying to apply for med school. But all of his grades, his GPA has to be tremendously higher, he has to have large point differences in his MCATs and of all the other things compared to the minorities. How is that white privilege?<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Yeah, I know. But they\u2019ll have an answer for it just as they have an answer for what white supremacy is. I think, Sherry, that white supremacy is another name for hate. And it\u2019s an umbrella under which a number of guilty traits that are alleged to part of being white fall. And so it\u2019s kind of a trap that you can\u2019t get out. White privilege &#8212; you know, I think about this all the time.<\/p>\n<p>I mean, the idea that whites have a built-in advantage over &#8212; I don\u2019t know. It depends. I mean, there\u2019s a lot of places &#8212; well, I don\u2019t know how to quite put this. I don\u2019t know how to put this without raising curiosity beyond the point where I want people to be curious about what I mean. It\u2019s just I think it\u2019s a catch-all. White supremacy and white privilege is a catch-all for the way the country was designed.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s a way of saying that America as constituted will never be fair, will never be not racist. It\u2019s a way of laying the groundwork for getting rid of the Constitution and transforming the country, starting over into something it was never intended to be. That\u2019s really what the ultimate purpose of all of these terms is, I believe. I\u2019m glad you called. I wish I had more time on this, and I do, but tomorrow.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: I&#039;m a literalist, I&#039;m the mayor of Realville.
