RUSH: As you know, ladies and gentlemen, I have been warning several times recently of the dangers of what is being taught on college campuses. Young skulls full of mush at 20 grand a semester go up and have all of this drivel, bilge, this waste pumped into their minds as so-called education. They end up being radicalized and believing some of the craziest, stupidest stuff. <\/p>\n

“A textbook used for an ‘activism\u2019 class at the University of Michigan teaches that capitalism should be ‘overthrown\u2019<\/a> — claiming ‘capitalism means waste, poverty, ecological degradation, dispossession, inequality, exploitation, imperialism, war and violence.\u2019<\/line><\/p>\n

“The textbook, ‘Beautiful Trouble: A Toolbox for Revolution,\u2019 is assigned as mandatory reading for ‘Organizational Studies 203: Activism,\u2019 a class at the public university that pledges to teach students about the ‘struggles of movements past, as well as hands-on engagement with the struggles of today.\u2019 The course is unbiased on paper, with its description stating ‘neither this course, nor its instructional staff, embraces or rejects any ideology, movement, or political project. We will not preach social change from any particular point of view.'” Which is the biggest crock since net neutrality to come down the pike today.<\/p>\n

“But the book blames the ‘global slump we are living through\u2019 on capitalism, adding it ‘is the predictable manifestation of a crisis-prone economic system rooted in production for profit rather than for human need. \u00c2\u2026 [F]or the sake of human development and ecological sanity it needs to be overthrown.'” But we\u2019re not ideological, they say. And we\u2019re not coming at this from any particular ideological point of view, and we\u2019re not coming at this from any bias. It\u2019s just that capitalism sucks and we need to get rid of it. Gotta get rid of this notion that we produce for profit rather than produce for human need. <\/p>\n

But that\u2019s exactly what capitalism does. Capitalism is about markets. Markets work. Capitalism produces not just for human need. It produces for human want. Socialism doesn\u2019t produce anything but misery and inequality, false promises, unhappiness, and economic stagnation, because there isn\u2019t any production. <\/p>\n

<\/a>What do we get to define as human need? See, that\u2019s one of the keys. These people set themselves up as the gurus, and they\u2019re gonna define what needs to be produced based on human need. What if they thought, “You know what, you don\u2019t need a cell phone. The cell phone is causing all kinds of social problems. People are not talking to each other in person anymore. We\u2019re clogging our air with dangerous radio waves, might be causing cancer in our brains. We must stop cell phone production, for the people.” <\/p>\n

Who gets to decide what is produced for human need? These good, well-intentioned busybody, Nanny State type liberals, who obviously know best? Anyway, textbook. Class, activism, overthrow capitalism, University of Michigan. <\/p>\n

But that\u2019s not all. From our buddies at Campus Reform<\/a>: “Students at an all-women\u2019s school are seeking funding for their very own BDSM club. More than 60 Mount Holyoke College (MHC) students RSVP\u2019d to the first meeting of the club which calls itself ‘The Control Tower.'”<\/p>\n

Do you know what a BDSM club is? (interruption) You don\u2019t? I didn\u2019t think Brian would know, and I didn\u2019t think Dawn would know, but I surely thought you would know, Snerdley. And what\u2019s gonna probably happen is Dawn probably does know while you and Brian don\u2019t. Again, students at an all women\u2019s college, Mount Holyoke, are seeking, demanding money for their very own on-campus BDSM club. It stands for this: bondage, dominance, sadism, and masochism. That is BDSM. <\/p>\n

They say that it constitutes “a variety of sexual practices that have risen in popularity recently due to the release of the movie Fifty Shades of Grey.” And because these female students at Mount Holyoke want to remain on the cutting edge, they need money for their own bondage, dominance, sadism, and masochism club. (interruption) What do you mean, we\u2019ve come full circle? (interruption) That\u2019s right. Well, okay, in that sense, yes. I thought you meant society. Yeah, feminazis have come full circle because now, 50, 60 years after the beginning of the modern era of feminism, they are asking for money for their own bondage, dominance, sadism, and masochism club, on campus at Mount Holyoke. <\/p>\n

“Club members plan to use the organization to educate MHC students about BDSM practices and the safety procedures. Caedyn Busche, a sophomore at MHC and a psychology and gender studies student, founded the club and told Mount Holyoke News in an interview that BDSM is a ‘huge topic of passion\u2019 for her.”<\/p>\n

Gender studies. They had me at gender studies. When I saw that was part of this, that\u2019s all I needed to know. (interruption) Well, I know. This could cause a reversal in the trend of men leaving college. It could cause an uptick in men reenrolling. Following the release of the movie, Fifty Shades of Grey, club organizers pointed out the need for discussion about bondage, dominance, sadism, and masochism topics. <\/line><\/p>\n

“Especially with 50 Shades of Grey coming out, it\u00c2\u2019s important for a group like this to meet,” said senior Jessica Avery. “There needs to be positive dialogues around consent, safety with a partner, proper usage of toys and basic knowledge of what BDSM\/kink is outside of the false Hollywood fantasy.” (interruption) Yes, they want a college club, and they want outside funding for it. They\u2019re looking for donations. What do you bet the donors are all male? Wait a minute, that\u2019s not all. That\u2019s just half of it. Hang on. I\u2019ve got one more.<\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH: No, and I\u2019ll tell you what. I\u2019m about to call \u2019em out on the air, too, that\u2019s something I never do. But I\u2019m this close to doing it. Oh, these guys that make this app, and it\u2019s not updating properly, and everybody and their uncle is telling them it\u2019s not updating properly and they write back they can\u2019t duplicate the problem, which is BS. They\u2019re lying to us and I\u2019m about to call \u2019em out. It won\u2019t matter. They\u2019re in Yugoslavia somewhere, but it still ticks me off. If you\u2019re not gonna upgrade the app, just tell me. Don\u2019t act like it\u2019s my problem it doesn\u2019t work. <\/p>\n

Anyway back to BDSM. This story that I just shared with you goes on to say that Harvard already has their BDSM club, as well as Penn State. Penn State already has a BDSM club, bondage, sadomasochism, dominance. Yes siree. <\/p>\n

Now, there\u2019s this. UK Daily Mail Online<\/a>. Mohammad Hossain, 19, college student, “has been charged with sexually assaulting 19-year-old woman after he allegedly attempted to recreate Fifty Shades of Grey. He is accused of tying up his victim, a fellow student, whipping and punching her before raping her in his dormitory at the University of Illinois at Chicago. The engineering student has admitted to police that he assaulted the woman, but explained to them that it was because they were ‘re-enacting scenes from Fifty Shades of Grey\u2019. Mr Hossain, a college freshman and student ambassador to the alumni association, and the alleged victim went to his room on Saturday afternoon,” after watching the movie. <\/p>\n

Now, why haven\u2019t we heard about this? This is college rape. It\u2019s college rape and the feminists have been telling us about the rape culture, how come you haven\u2019t heard about this? You hadn\u2019t heard about this, right? (interruption) How come you haven\u2019t? Well… (interruption) Well… (interruption) It\u2019s two things. It\u2019s \u2019cause the left won\u2019t go after Fifty Shades of Grey, but it\u2019s also because this guy\u2019s not a member of a fraternity. This guy\u2019s not a member of fraternity, Mohammed Hossain. So the news kind of just floats out there in like a nether ether. Different kind of extremist that the left hasn\u2019t fully categorized yet. <\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH: We have somebody from the bondage community on the phone, Nickie, somewhere in Wisconsin. I\u2019m glad you called. Great to have you with us. Hello.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Mega dittos, Rush. I\u2019ve been looking to talk to you for 25 years.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Well, here you are, sir. Glad you made it through.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Yeah, I\u2019m in the BDSM community in Wisconsin. We all find that whole book and the movie just kind of lame. It\u2019s nothing close to reality, because the reality of the whole situation involves a lot of hard limits agreed upon beforehand, and that rapist guy, you know, apparently he doesn\u2019t understand anything about the community.<\/p>\n

RUSH: So you\u2019re saying that there\u2019s all kinds of agreement before anything happens in your community, but in that movie, that woman had no clue what was headed her way, and that\u2019s not what you guys do, right, that\u2019s what you\u2019re saying?<\/p>\n

CALLER: Exactly. That\u2019s why we think the whole book and the movie was just really lame. You know, there\u2019s kind of an agreement that this is the hard limits.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Well, now, but is somebody trying to say that what happens in this movie is reflective of the BDSM community out there? Is that why you\u2019re — I never knew that about it. I just thought it was a book. It had a guy behave this way and a woman ultimately went along with it. I couldn\u2019t finish the book. It got boring to me.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Right. <\/p>\n

RUSH: This book couldn\u2019t compare to my real life, so I kind of threw it aside. <\/p>\n

CALLER: Yeah, most of us find it very boring.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Well, I got good company on this. Well, I\u2019m happy to have you — so there\u2019s agreement beforehand and there are rules and escape mechanisms, I\u2019m certain, in the way you do things, right?<\/p>\n

CALLER: For example, my mistress and I, we have set limits. You know, we won\u2019t do this, we won\u2019t do this, and we won\u2019t do this.<\/p>\n

RUSH: What about your wife?<\/p>\n

CALLER: My mistress, same difference.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Oh.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Mistress, slash, owner.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Oh, same difference. I like that. Well, I don\u2019t like that. I\u2019m intrigued. That\u2019s interesting.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Any guy who\u2019s married will tell you their wife is their owner. (laughing)<\/p>\n

RUSH: Mistress, slash, owner, right. That\u2019s where I was missing. That\u2019s what I didn\u2019t get.<\/p>\n

CALLER: But yes, the community as a whole, though, you know, we do have our venture. We get together with other people who are into the scene. I was just at one recently this last weekend and we were all talking about the movie and the book and we\u2019re all going, “How lame.”<\/p>\n

RUSH: Well, because apparently the book is inspiring some, I don\u2019t know what you call it, copycats? People are setting up these — like the babes at Mount Holyoke are seeking money to set up their own club based on this movie. They don\u2019t want to be left out. And it sounds like you wouldn\u2019t approve of that, because what happens in the movie is not BDSM as you know and love it. <\/p>\n

You know, you learn all kinds of things hosting a program like this, folks, as long as you\u2019re open to it. I appreciate the call out there, Nickie, from somewhere in Wisconsin. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
