RUSH: We had a story, it was a tweet from — I can\u2019t remember who. It might have been Mark Penn. It might have been some other Democrat. They were very, very worried that Black Lives Matter had gone from plus 25 support, I think it was Michigan, but it might be Wisconsin<\/a>. Black Lives Matter had gone from plus 25 support to zero.<\/p>\n

Now, let me tell you how absurd this is. Black Lives Matter is a straight-up Marxist, Leninist, communist organization. It is not a civil rights organization in any way, shape, manner, or form. Not my opinion. It\u2019s what they say about themselves on their own website. This is what makes so much of this mind-boggling.<\/p>\n

The NFL, the NBA, Major League Baseball, professional sports, they\u2019ve all thrown in with a communist organization, and they know it. Many of them have thrown in with another communist organization. That\u2019d be China. Black Lives Matter is not about anything to do with Martin Luther King, not about Selma, it\u2019s not about any of the civil rights activity, slavery, none of that. It\u2019s flat-out anti-capitalism, full-fledged pro-communism. And their objective is to destroy the United States as currently structured.<\/p>\n

\"\"So I found it fascinating, somebody like Black Lives Matter, you know, people go out and poll them and they were plus 25 favorability. And you know who gave them that favorability was white, Millennial, college-educated women. White women who have been targeted in college and high school classrooms, they have been guilted like you can\u2019t believe into being responsible for all of the misfortune and the unfortunate things that have happened to African-Americans their whole lives, and they have accepted the blame, they\u2019ve accepted the guilt, and they end up supporting Black Lives Matter and Antifa.<\/p>\n

They\u2019ve been reached through a high speed tunnel of emotion and they have not been appealed to via reason or intellect or anything of the sort. So Black Lives Matter was plus 25 approval. I think it was Michigan or Wisconsin, one of the two. Now, some weeks ago they had lost all their support. They were down to zero.<\/p>\n

The news today is support for Black Lives Matter has dropped 12 points overall, not just in one state, but everywhere since June. And this poll is from the Pew Research Center for the People and the Press. And they say support for Black Lives Matter has dropped 12 points since June. Get this. This is maddening to me. Back in June 67% of American adults said they supported the Black Lives Matter movement. What a dangerous, scary, embarrassing thing. Sixty-seven percent.<\/p>\n

Now, we have to allow that a certain percentage of that 67% were just taking the path of least resistance when they answered. Phone rings. “Hi. We\u2019re from the ‘You\u2019re a racist\u2019 polling company. You support Black Lives Matter?”<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

“Oh, absolutely, I mean, I got Black Lives Matter signs in the front door. Absolutely I do.”<\/p>\n

“Okay, good, you\u2019re not a racist, then.” Hang up. What are the odds? “No, I don\u2019t support Black Lives Matter. They\u2019re not a civil rights –”<\/p>\n

“Oh, really? You don\u2019t, huh? Well, somebody gonna be visiting your house maybe tonight. You might want to be on the lookout for that.”<\/p>\n

I think there may be some of that. But I think a lot of support for Black Lives Matter is simply the result of media disinformation, flat-out lying. And even despite that, now Black Lives Matter support has dropped 12 points. It\u2019s still over 50%. Still 55% of adults said they supported the racial justice movement. It\u2019s not racial, and it\u2019s not justice. It is anti-American. It\u2019s anti-American founding. It\u2019s anti-capitalism. It\u2019s anti-liberty and freedom, is what Black Lives Matter is.<\/p>\n

It ought to have whatever percentage of communists are in this country, 10%, ought to have no more than 10% support. 55%. That\u2019s still dangerously high. And it has to be that a large percentage of our population is just ignorant. I\u2019m not saying stupid. Just ignorant. They just don\u2019t know.<\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH: Jori in Lancaster, Pennsylvania. It\u2019s great to have you on the EIB Network. Hello.<\/p>\n

\"\"CALLER: Hey, Rush, prayers to you. I just wanted to say to you before I start you\u2019ve been really an inspiration for me. I\u2019ve had some family members go through some sicknesses similar to what you are going through right now. And just the way that you kind of fight through it and push it to the side and just keep pushing on with your normal life has been a real inspiration to me.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Well, thank you.<\/p>\n

CALLER: So I wanted to say that.<\/p>\n

RUSH: I really appreciate that. Thank you very much, sir.<\/p>\n

CALLER: So I\u2019ll get right to the point, then. I was just calling — I\u2019m sure you\u2019ve heard about the shooting of a black man in Lancaster that sparked a bunch of protests. If you didn\u2019t, it was a black man that chased a police officer with a knife held over his head like he was ready to stab the officer. The officer turned and shot him and killed him. And it sparked a bunch of protests.<\/p>\n

But my main point in saying this is just that I think there\u2019s two ways that the Democrats really try to control the young people in this country. I\u2019ve noticed it specifically just because I\u2019m in that demographic. I\u2019m a senior in college right now. I think the first that\u2019s talked about the most is obviously the media. The liberals control most all of the media.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Yep.<\/p>\n

CALLER: And then the second is for sure the education system. And I really learned this semester, just because I\u2019m home and online, and my youngest brother is 12 years old, and he\u2019ll come home from school and tell me that they make the students watch CNN in study halls and take notes on it for extra credit. And I\u2019m just like, oh, my goodness, it\u2019s so obvious what they\u2019re doing, it\u2019s so obvious how much control they have over these people.<\/p>\n

Then in college just seeing how many college students are at the protests in Lancaster. There was a student from Westchester University that was arrested and put on million-dollar bail, and the school of Westchester and Philadelphia is promoting all these GoFundMe accounts to get her out of prison when she was starting fires in the streets and inciting riots that were dangerous to other human lives.<\/p>\n

\"\"RUSH: Yeah, in fact, the entire Democrat Party is doing that. Kamala Harris has been raising money to bail out people who have been engaged in protests that have been destroying private property<\/a>. But you\u2019re right on both counts. Education and the media are the two primary tools that have been used to corrupt young skulls full of mush when they arrive at various levels of the American education system.<\/p>\n

Now, it\u2019s rare that somebody in the system actually sees it like you do. Most end up just being victimized by it and don\u2019t even realize it. They think they\u2019re hearing the truth, being told the truth. But you — and I\u2019m sure it\u2019s because of your steadfast loyalty to this program — you know that you\u2019re being lied to. You know you\u2019re being propagandized. And therefore, Jori, you have a responsibility to help your fellow students understand it. And that\u2019s not easy. It\u2019s not easy to tell them that they\u2019re being made fools of.<\/p>\n

Nobody wants to think of themselves as an easy mark. Nobody wants to think of themselves as easily manipulated, lied to, and all that. But that\u2019s exactly what is happening. And maybe you\u2019ll find that more of them are aware of it as you are, than you think. But, yeah, I mean, you have a little bit of a task and objective. I\u2019m glad you called. I really appreciate it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
