| Welcome to today's edition of the Rush 247 podcast. | |
| Yes, on the thirteenth day of guest hosts, Rush Limbaugh gave to thee an EIB anchor baby. | |
| Hey, hey, wait, wait a minute, wait a minute. | |
| The thirteenth day of guest host? | |
| This is this is this is ridiculous. | |
| This isn't even lamer than the the twelve days of Christmas. | |
| Well, do not worry. | |
| Do not fret. | |
| Rush returns live for authentic full strength excellence in broadcasting on Monday. | |
| Rush is going to be here on Monday. | |
| He's uh going to be guest hosting for the pre-scheduled guest host. | |
| That's how eager he is to get back behind the microphone. | |
| Uh we will psyched because we'd managed to sign uh Martin O'Malley to guest host on uh Monday and Tuesday, and then uh Lincoln Chafey was going to come in on Wednesday and Thursday. | |
| This is like premium quality guest hosts. | |
| You can't get better than that. | |
| They are the guest hosts, guest hosts. | |
| Uh but uh Rush said, no, no, no, nuts to that. | |
| I've uh I've had enough. | |
| I want to get back behind the microphone, so he will be here live on Monday, guest hosting for the pre-scheduled guest hosts, and Martin O'Malley and Lincoln Chafey will just have to wait uh till next boxing day for their opportunity to guest host. | |
| Great to be with you. | |
| Mark Stein, uh honored to be behind the golden EIB microphone, not for full strength All American excellence in broadcasting, but just kind of cheap foreign labor level excellence in broadcasting. | |
| But the good news is it's the end of the week, and you know what that means. | |
| Live from Ice Station EIB, it's open line Friday. | |
| Yes, indeed, 1800-282-2882. | |
| You know how this works. | |
| Normally this show is under the ruthless iron rodcast specialist who tightly controls the subjects under discussion. | |
| But we have no such uh broadcast specialist behind the microphone today, so anything goes. | |
| Uh call me 1800-282-2882 and talk about whatever is on your mind. | |
| As I said a couple of days ago, my new year resolution is to take more calls from lefties, uh, particularly if you're uh uh a uh safe space snowflake and uh you're in the transgendered bathroom and you've got a couple of minutes between transitioning and you'd like to call and talk about whatever's on your mind, I'm happy to hear about it. | |
| 1-800-282-2882. | |
| If you want to talk about how swimmingly all this Russian hacking stuff uh is going, uh we're happy to talk about that. | |
| I think Donald Trump's tweet about it actually summed it up. | |
| The fact that uh this was leaked to the war this so-called top security intelligence briefing of the president, the outgoing president, and the incoming president. | |
| So you gotta uh you gotta imagine there's a pretty tight group of personnel in that room. | |
| Uh, nevertheless, uh the contents of that briefing managed to be leaked to the Washington Post. | |
| Uh and Trump tweeted about that, and he's quite right. | |
| This th this country is a pol it has for a start too large an intelligence community. | |
| People are impressed by that phrase, intelligence community. | |
| There's four million people with security clearances uh in this country. | |
| That's the population of New Zealand. | |
| It's like flying to New Zealand and finding that everyone is uh a duble O seven, except it's here it's 004 million and seven, because that's how many there are of them. | |
| Uh so we have a bureaucratic intelligence community, a politicized intelligence community that that leaks that leaks to the newspapers. | |
| And you can think of there are equivalents in other countries. | |
| If I think about it, I can uh think of some time you know I can think of machinations and maneuverings between French intelligence and in Britain there's a uh there's like a little friction between MI5, which is the domestic security service, and MI6, which is all the James Bond stuff. | |
| But here uh we have four million people uh sitting sitting M oh I can't tell I g Mr. Snerdley wants to know what MI1, MI2, MI3, and MI4 stand for. | |
| Uh I could tell you, Mr. Snerdley, but I'd I'd actually have to kill you. | |
| Uh in fact, the there w I had a friend, uh the great Canadian theatre critic, Milton Shulbert, a theater critic does it sound like a very butch job, but during the war he worked for I think it was MI 37. | |
| And when he used to say, well, actually, I was a you know the way Buck Sexton is CIA and everyone thinks that's cool when he's guest hosting because it's like uh super butch. | |
| Uh poor old Milton Shulbert when he used to say that he worked he'd worked during the war for MI 37. | |
| Everybody uh everybody used to laugh at him. | |
| But you get friction between that. | |
| You don't get what is happening here, uh, where you have uh essentially democrats uh so called uh members of the so called intelligence community uh purely for domestic politics leaking to Democrat uh media court eunuchs at the Washington Post to advance a Democrat political narrative. | |
| The leak is far more interesting than any of the mumbo jumbo uh that's uh that's coming out about this story, because it's exactly what happens when you have a politicized intelligence community, which is why uh ten years ago all the Democrats were going around squawking about Bush lied his way into Iraq because he made the mistake of be believing the intelligence community, which told him all the stuff about weapons of mass destruction. | |
| Bush lied, people died. | |
| Where uh WMD, blah blah blah. | |
| You know, why didn't he just reject the advice of the CIA and every other intelligence agency? | |
| Why did he believe them? | |
| Why did he believe them? | |
| And now we're saying it's unpatriotic, it's unpatriotic not to accept uncritically every word from the so called intelligence community. | |
| I like to see the United States go back to something like the OSS during wartime, uh, which was actually the the precursor of the CIA and actually rather better at the job. | |
| Uh but we can talk about we can talk about that one eight hundred two eight two eight eight two. | |
| I think Trump's tweet sums up exactly the problem with a big bloated intelligence community. | |
| Uh and everyone, if you go to the movies, the CIA is all powerful. | |
| You've seen everyone's seen these conspiracy thrillers where some guy is on the lamb and he's and he's got to get away. | |
| He's got he's got some top secret and he needs to get away before the CIA guys catch up with him, and he's uh in the middle of some cornfield in Iowa and he comes to some uh one stop light little town in the middle of nowhere, and it's still got a payphone outside the gas station, | |
| and he gets out of his car and he uh and he and he drops a dime in the payphone and he picks it up because he's got to get he's got he's got this secret and the CIA are after him, and the next thing you know, kaboom, the CIA somehow vaporized the the the payphone and he's gone, he's over, because the CIA is all powerful. | |
| And everyone's impressed by that. | |
| Everyone thinks the CIA is controlling everything, they're running everything, they're toppling foreign leaders, they're doing this, they're doing that, and in return, and in actual fact, the quote intelligence community, unquote, is millions and millions of bureaucrats uh reading emails all day long. | |
| And uh the fact is that there's a lot of emails to read and they're not very good at it, which is why even if you finger a guy to uh to the United States government, as the father of the panty bomber did, or as the Russians did with the Boston Marathon bomber, it can't get all the memos uh saying in triplicate you might like to uh look into this guy. | |
| They don't have enough carbon paper to get it round to all the four million intelligence agents uh in the hopes of it eventually landing on the right desk, which is why the panty bomber came within an inch of blown up the plane over Detroit, and why the marathon bomber actually got to blow up the marathon. | |
| So Trump is right that something uh w whether or whether whatever the truth about this story about reorganizing the intelligence community, the post-9-11 reorganization of the intelligence community failed, and it ought to be streamlined and something ought to be done about that. | |
| We'll take your calls on that, 1-800-282-2882. | |
| We will also say something about uh this hideous assault uh in Chicago. | |
| And and more to the point, uh the larger significance of it. | |
| Again, uh the left is conflicted on this, just as they are with the intelligence community. | |
| Uh George W. Bush shouldn't have shouldn't have believed a word that the CIA told him about WMD, but Donald Trump is outrageous uh in not believing every single word coming to him from the intelligence community. | |
| And it's the same thing it's i i uh uh as the old line has it, if uh they didn't have double standards, they wouldn't have any standards at all. | |
| when a guy attacks a church in South Carolina, it's not just an isolated act, it's of total huge s uh significance such that it becomes forbidden to watch reruns of the Dukes of Hazard on obscure cable channels uh just in case you happen to uh catch a glimpse of a Confederate flag sticker on the roof of a car in a nineteen seventies rerun. | |
| All that as they go. | |
| Dukes of Hazard has to be yanked from syndication uh lest you happen to see it and you too are driven and motivated uh to attack a church in South Carolina. | |
| That's on the one hand. | |
| On the other hand, uh when four guys uh beat up a uh uh a mentally disabled guy uh and they make him drink toilet water and they abuse him for between twenty four and forty eight hours and all the time and and they like what they're doing so much that they post it on Facebook with them openly cheering uh F Trump, F white people, then there is no broader significance to that whatsoever. | |
| That is just an isolated incident, and although obviously, of course we all deplore it, it has no broader significance. | |
| That that is what the media and the left uh want you to believe, which is why uh the Associated Press uh their first report on what happened in Chicago said that Chicago police say they're investigating a video circulating on social media that shows quote several people beating, quote, a man, unquote, at a residence. | |
| There's nothing about nothing about who the victim is, nothing about who the perpetrators are. | |
| You're just told several people are beating a man at a residence. | |
| That's it. | |
| This isn't this isn't news as the Associated Press is reporting it. | |
| This is a way of evading news. | |
| This is a way of taking out anything interesting. | |
| All the things that reporting used to be about uh the who, what, when, where, why, now you find out the who, what, when, where, why, and then you keep it to yourself. | |
| That's the essence of American journalism uh in the year twenty seventeen. | |
| So so all we know about what happened in Chicago is that several persons beat up a person person, uh and and none of the other details about these persons, you know, there are eight million stories in the naked city, and this could have been any of them. | |
| It could be any any group of people uh attacking another bunch of people, and we can't and it has no broader significance whatsoever. | |
| And I disagree with that. | |
| Uh I think I think we're gonna get a lot more of this stuff in the future because it is the logic of identity politics. | |
| It is where identity politics leads. | |
| It is about ultimately the dehumanization that attends identity politics. | |
| So that you have four uh in this case, four guys uh oh, actually two young women, supposedly, two young ladies supposedly, uh beating up another guy uh while they're shouting about white people and Trump. | |
| Uh nobody knows this guy is white, nobody knows whether he's Trump, uh, but but the minute you have identity groups, the minute you have identity politics, where what matters is whether people are black uh or white or gay or straight or transgendered or cisgendered or Muslim or infidel, then you do not see the humanity in your fellow man. | |
| All you see is the disfavored group. | |
| And eventually you end up with what uh what happened in this situation where a guy nobody even knows if he's a Trump supporter, but he's the right colour to be a Trump supporter, so let's go get him anyway. | |
| Uh and I and there will be more of this in the future, as long as the left is invested uh in identity politics as the organizing principle of society. | |
| Because the that identity politics is a polite word. | |
| Uh the the actual term for what it is is uh a return to tribalism, where you don't see people as individuals equal before the law, uh free born citizens, the co equals of others. | |
| What matters more and more is what group you belong to. | |
| That's where I this this crime is ultimately where identity politics leads. | |
| And if you look at what they're planning for, uh the the um the the left won't give up on this. | |
| A bunch of Hollywood celebrities, so called we'll be talking about this with Nick Searcy in in the in the next hour. | |
| Uh a bunch of Hollywood celebrities has just made a video uh in which they go on about all the people that Donald Trump and his supporters supposedly hate. | |
| So they go on about if you hate Muslims, if you're homophobic, uh if you are anti-Semitic at all, uh then they're called the celebrities are calling on people to push back. | |
| You basically, for a start it's nonsense, uh, because actually those groups don't all get on. | |
| The the the resurgence in Jew hate in the world is actually being driven by Islam, and the resurgence in gay bashing for the most part, if you go to Amsterdam and other formerly liberal Western cities, is actually being driven by Islam. | |
| And if you go to a gay nightclub in Orlando uh and forty-nine of you are just grooving around dancing, having a big old gay old time, uh the guy blowing you up uh is actually one of those favorite Islam groups. | |
| So the idea that they're all the rainbow coalition on one side uh and and uh there's the Trump supporting white men on the other is not is not true. | |
| But the the fact that these airhead celebrities don't even see it's fine to be an airhead celebrity in your Malibu mansion, because you've got other things to do in an evening. | |
| You've got better things to do than go out and beat up uh some white disabled guy. | |
| Uh but the logic of identity politics, uh the di this division of free-born citizens into tribes, uh treating with them not as individuals, but as memb uh uh as members of which groups in fashion or out of fashion that they belong to will lead to far more of this stuff. | |
| Mark Stein, open line Friday, 1 800-282-2882. | |
| Mark Stein in for Rush on America's uh number one radio show, Open Line Friday. | |
| You can talk about anything you want to talk about. | |
| I've uh been uh talking about this uh brutal assault uh in Chicago, which which ought to just be treated as a a crime. | |
| I personally don't believe in hate crimes because hate crimes is again an uh an identity politics uh thing that undermines equality before the law. | |
| In other words, if you're club to a pulp, uh what matters is not that you're club to a pulp, but whether you're clubbed to a pulp uh because you're a member of a group that matters, such as a uh such as a Muslim woman, or whether you're club to a pulp because uh the guy wanted to steal your watch. | |
| And I don't believe in that. | |
| If you're club to a pulp, uh that's the crime, and that's what you should be prosecuted for. | |
| And uh when you start making it an issue of hate crimes and identity politics grievance mongering, then you end up with, for example, the vast cavalcade of fake hate crimes that we have had uh uh uh and which for which the newspapers have fallen hook line and sinker since November the eighth. | |
| Uh for example, the m the Muslim woman who claimed that a Trump supporter tried to tear her hijab off on the subway. | |
| No such thing happened, and that woman is now uh uh being uh investigated by police for a fake hate crime. | |
| Meanwhile, we actually have uh a racist hate crime here in Chicago, and the Associated Press doesn't want to tell you any of the details about it. | |
| And just to go back to a couple of the stories I mentioned when I was here two days ago, I mentioned this professor at Drexel University, which is in uh Philadelphia, I think. | |
| I can't keep track of all the advanced institutes of higher education there are now, because as I said on Wednesday, it's like Palest Shoe Sauce and Taco Bell. | |
| There'll be another one along 200 yards down the road. | |
| There's so many of them now. | |
| But this Drexel is apparently a real university in Philadelphia, and this professor, Dr. George Chicheriello Ma treated out that all I want for Christmas is white genocide. | |
| Uh and when he was asked to explain what he meant by that, he said to clarify, when the whites were massacred during the Haitian Revolution, that was a good thing indeed. | |
| Now what he's talking about there is uh two hundred years ago, the massacre of all white people in Ha in Haiti, uh not just the men, but the women and children. | |
| If you know your Haitian history, um you'll know that uh Jean-Jacques uh Dessaline, uh basically who was running the joint, went from town to town personally supervising uh the the murder, the mass murder of the women and children in Haiti. | |
| Already won the revolution, so this was just a mopping up operation. | |
| He wanted to decapitate all the survivors. | |
| Um there's a famous uh there's a famous picture of him actually holding up the severed head of a woman that he personally decapitated in order to inspire his troops to decapitate all the other women women. | |
| And this is what you're paying for when you uh pay a uh go into six figures of college debt to have your kids educated at Drexel University. | |
| And the guy is a fake. | |
| He has no desire to live in Haiti or live with the consequences of the Haitian Revolution. | |
| He's a poser, but he still thinks it's cool uh to represent himself as being in favour of white genocide. | |
| Yeah, open line Friday, which means we get to play fast and loose with the rules, a little Canadian content. | |
| A little Canadian content uh for you fellow uh fellow subjects of the Great White Northern Dominion across the 49th parallel. | |
| That's uh that's Bachman Turner Overdrive, isn't it, Mike? | |
| Ba ba baby, ba ba-ba-ba-ba-baby, you ain't seen nothing yet. | |
| I don't I'm yeah, they're they're Canadian, Randy Backman. | |
| His his son, I probably shouldn't say this because it would embarrass the poor fellow, uh, but his son who who's uh who had a hit a couple of years ago with She's So High actually opened. | |
| He was basically my warm-up act at uh at a thing I did a few years ago. | |
| He's very very sweet, nice guy, but he's the son of Randy Backman of Bachman Turner Overdrive B-Ba-Ba Baby. | |
| You ain't seen nothing yet. | |
| Now I haven't heard that on the radio in a while. | |
| I guess Yeah, no, that that's that's that's right. | |
| They're a great then we have a ton of Mr. Snadley had just said, oh, so you guys have two or three stars up there. | |
| We're basically look, we're pro we're Yeah, there's uh Gino Venelli. | |
| We're gonna think about those knots in Montreal. | |
| That's one of the great that's one of the great songs. | |
| Uh and uh but and th they should play that more on the radio. | |
| They should play you ain't seen nothing yet, but I think that bubba bubba baby is is like uh stutterphobic or um or whatever they call it now, so it it people don't people don't like to hear it. | |
| But uh we are we are proud to play a little bit of Canadian content on your open line Friday bumper music right here on the Rush Limbaugh Show. | |
| Uh don't forget though, if you're thinking, what is this? | |
| I don't tune in to America's number one radio show to hear a lot of Nambi pamby Canadian guitarists. | |
| It's not even real rock music up there. | |
| They're doing they're doing it with maple syrup and poutine. | |
| Uh that's how they make the guitars up there. | |

| And Tucker has only been doing like the 7 p.m. slot for a few weeks, uh but his uh feisty combative interview style has has made him a lot of fans, and as a result he's being promoted to Meghan Kelly's slot, and Rush interviews him uh in the current issue of the Limbaugh Letter. | |

| All you have to do is go to Rushlimbaugh.com and click on the little limb letter logo, and you need never again be discombobulated by sinister foreign guest hosts. | |
| I was talking before the break about this uh professor, Dr. George Chicciarello Ma, who treated out that he wanted white genocide, by which he meant, as he later clarified, quote, when the whites were massacred during the Haitian Revolution, that was a good thing indeed, unquote. | |
| Which is why, as you notice, Haiti today is one of the uh uh happiest and most prosperous societies on earth, and which is why millions of Americans flee the United States each year uh to illegally emigrate to Haiti because Haiti's Haiti's got all the answers. | |
| This this professor at Drexel University, I would willingly mortgage my house uh to send my kid to Drexel University and be taught by this guy, because he's actually he he's telling the truth, the truth that uh that that most of uh these shills going on uh with their pro-American stuff are too dishonest to tell, that Haiti's got it solved. | |
| Haiti is a beacon unto the world. | |
| Uh that Haiti killed or massacred everybody, beheaded the women, beheaded the children, and as a result it now has the most advanced and highly developed society on earth, and uh and everybody knows it's I if you take a cruise ship, I don't know why people take cruise ships to the Bahamas or to Barbados or to St. Kitts or to St. Lucia or to the Turks and Caicos Islands or to St. Vincent or to the British Virgin Islands or to Montserrat. | |
| You're all wasting your time. | |
| Go to Haiti and stay in the fantastic luxury resort uh that they built on the decapitated bodies of all those uh kids that they massacred there. | |
| Uh and the only puzzle to me is that having identified Haiti uh as the an advanced society and a beacon to the world and explained exactly why millions and millions of Americans each year can't wait to swim to Haiti and clamber ashore and live in a true socially just society. | |
| Uh the only the only question I don't understand is why Dr. George Chick Chiccioriello Ma doesn't uh actually go and live in Haiti himself. | |
| It may be just because he's a pasty white dweeb and he's and he's worried that uh some nostalgics for the old days might decide to decapitate him. | |
| It may be that you actually can't make a living peddling this nonsense in Haiti, and that if you want to make the big bucks talking about uh talking about white genocide and what a good thing it is, if you want to like a really solid six-figure s salary teaching white genocide, uh there's no point being at whatever the equivalent in Haiti of Drexel University is, uh head shopping university, massacre university, disease-ridden university. | |
| I'm not familiar with Haitian institutes of higher learning, but that if you want to make the big bucks peddling this stuff, you've got to go to Drexel University and teach there in Philadelphia. | |
| And so he's, as I said, he's like a pasty white dweeb who thinks the cool thing is to be talking up uh white genocide, demonizing white people. | |
| Nobody's saying that this guy is uh gonna go out and beat up a disabled guy like these four fellas did in Chicago. | |
| But uh when you institutionalize this view of the world, you are dehumanizing a part of your fellow man, which is of course the great critique of uh of slavery, | |
| uh that uh that uh that you do you no longer treat with your fellow man as a free-born individual human being, uh, but you designate him as a member of an inferior group uh and you uh and you institutionalize that, and you so you can no longer see the humanity in your fellow man. | |
| All you see is the other. | |
| And so we we live in this situation now where we expected to put up with, oh, white man this, white man that, white genocide this, white genocide that. | |
| And then we're surprised uh when some low level scum uh halfway across the country actually takes it literally and says, Well, wait a minute, wait a minute, all the uh all all all everybody's going to college and talking about white privilege and being taught white privilege and then being talking about old white men, white men this, white men that. | |
| Hey, look, there's a white man, let's beat the crab out of him. | |
| It's part of the same it's part of the same continuum. | |
| And in fairness to this idiot professor, uh he's at least talking about white man this, white man that, in terms of race and race relations. | |
| He's saying, I liked it when the blacks killed all the whites. | |
| That really got me going. | |
| That really got my juices flowing. | |
| That was a real turn on for me. | |
| I wish we could have the Haitian Revolution in America, and I wish we could see a bunch of black guys killing all the white guys. | |
| Because I'm a pasty white dweeb, and that really turns me on to see to see a bunch of black guys taking the machete to all the white guys. | |
| As long as I'm as long as I'm not among them, as long as they spare a few college professors, uh then I'm cool with that. | |
| And uh, in fairness, he's at least talking about race. | |
| White men, black men, black men, white men. | |
| He's talking about race. | |
| What's insane about our world is that white men, white m white men now use white man as an insult for stuff that has absolutely nothing to do with race. | |
| It's supposedly the dispositive insult in almost any topic. | |
| It doesn't matter what you're talking about, if you just say to somebody, well, you're an old white guy, that's it. | |
| That's it. | |
| Conversation over. | |
| He's won, because he's called you an old white guy. | |
| I'll give you an example I'll give you an example of that. | |
| I spoke on this show on Wednesday about Judith Curry, a very brave climate scientist, who uh has resigned from her position at Georgia Tech because of what she calls, quote, the craziness in climate science. | |
| Ever since the uh the University of East Anglia Climate Gate emails, uh she realized that uh something totally malodorous was going on in her field, and she has been regarded as a dissenting voice. | |
| And so all the nice little progressive feminist new males piled on, and they used terms that you would never be able to use if uh you were talking about a progressive woman. | |
| If you were talking about Hillary Clinton like this, your career would be over. | |
| Uh but they all accused her of, quote, whoring for climate deniers, and as I mentioned on Wednesday, literally sleeping with me. | |
| That's how bad things got. | |
| That's what she was accused of. | |
| And so after I mentioned her on the sh the the show, I just did a little pracy of how she'd been what had happened to her and how her career had been suffered uh because of her dissenting views on climate. | |
| And a guy on the other side of the world in Melbourne, Victoria in Australia, Mr. Tom Hartney, is his Twitter handle. | |
| He responded to my tweet by saying, Reality check for the senile white men urinating round the science denial plot, climate change ruins women's livelihoods everywhere. | |
| This is part of the theory that climate change will force women into prostitution. | |
| Pay no attention to that. | |
| Listen to this. | |
| Mr. Tom Hartney, reality check for the senile white men urinating round the science denial plot. | |
| Again, he's like this professor at Drexel University in Philadelphia. | |
| He's another dweeby pasty white male, but somehow he thinks that by using the term white man as an insult, that makes him part of the cool kids. | |
| Uh oh, senile white men. | |
| Put aside the ageism, because you're not allowed to be transphobic, uh, you're not all you're not allowed to be Islamophobic, you're not allowed to be this or that aphobic, uh, but you you can be biased against the old uh when you're just talking about old white men. | |
| And by uh by old white men, I obviously don't mean people like the soon-to-be Septuaginarian Hillary Rodham Clinton. | |
| She's old and she's white, but she's a woman, so she doesn't count as an old white man. | |
| And obviously I don't mean uh the Septuagintarian uh House Minority Leader, Nancy Pelosi. | |
| She's old and white, but she's a woman. | |
| So so when we talk about senile white men, we obviously don't mean Hillary Rodham Clinton, and we don't mean Nancy Pelosi. | |
| And when I talk about senile white men, I obviously don't mean uh whatever he is now, eighty-seven-year-old Bernie Sanders. | |
| Uh he's not a senile white man because he's a Democrat. | |
| So no one would ever dream of looking at the Democrats front bench and accusing them of being senile, but when you just when you're when you're having a conversation about Any topic, uh, and the guy disagrees with leftist orthodoxy, then you as a white person feel free to damn them as an old white man. | |
| Old white man, old white man. | |
| So we have this uh so so now it's nothing to do with race even. | |
| If you're having a conversation about climate change, and you happen not to sign on to the orthodoxy of climate change, you're a senile white man. | |
| White man this, white man that, white man the other. | |
| Is it any surprise in the end, if you make that the one acceptable slur? | |
| Because you can't you can't demonize anybody else on the basis of their skin colour, on the basis of their gender or orientation, but white man is now the all purpose refutation of whatever some guy is saying to you. | |
| Oh, you disagree on climate change, you're a senile you're a senile white man. | |
| And is it any wonder when you do that, that eventually, uh at some point, uh large numbers of people actually start to see uh effectively the dehumanization of large parts of society. | |
| Dweeby white male professors in Philadelphia, doebey white male Twitterers in Melbourne, Australia, white man, white man, white man. | |
| Uh Hollywood celebrities saying, Oh it's Trump's fault. | |
| It's Trump's supporters' fault. | |
| Islamophobia is Trump's fault. | |
| Jew hate is Trump's fault. | |
| It's Jew hate isn't the fault uh of uh the people gunning gunning down uh Jews uh in the uh Jewish museum in Brussels, gunning down Jews in kosher supermarkets in Paris. | |
| It's the a it's the one year anniversary of that tomorrow, by the way. | |
| Uh gay hate, homophobia, gay bashing. | |
| It's not the fault of the Muslim who guns down forty-nine people in an Orlando nightclub. | |
| Everything is the fault of white males. | |
| Old white males. | |
| And we expect you to know enough to know not to beat up on Bernie Sanders. | |
| He's a good white male. | |
| But out on the streets of Chicago, late at night, they can't always tell Bernie Sanders from the disabled guy they're hunting for to beat up. | |
| And all kinds of odd things can happen once you legitimize uh this kind of crude uh otherism, as they call it, and make half the population of the country the enemy. | |
| Mark Stein for Rush will take your calls straight ahead. | |
| Mark Stein in for Rush, one eight hundred two eight eight two, we will take all your calls on Open Line Friday, whatever is on your mind. | |
| This one's just for me. | |
| It's a good news story. | |
| You know, I've talked on this show about how kinds, which are a great delicacy, uh, are banned in the United States. | |
| Only two countries in the world ban them, Chile and the United States, because it's in breach of some federal law uh about having a confectionary with a non nutritive embed, because these chocolate eggs have a uh have a little toy inside them. | |
| Thousands of kindergarts washed up uh this morning on a German island, uh I think it's called Lang. | |
| I think it's off the uh north coast of uh the Ger whatever it's called, the Eastern Sea, I think it is, and uh it shows all these happy kids scrambling along the beach, picking up these thousands of kinds, and also Lego, which washed up on the island. | |
| Uh and and if this was if this had washed up on an outlying US island like Hawaii, it would be a national security threat, and uh thousands of federal agents would have to descend on the beaches and snatch back these kinds before the poor, unfortunate children of the United States were accidentally exposed to the dangers of children eggs. | |
| But this picture of happy German children uh collecting free kinds from the thousands that are washed up on the beach of this island, also Lego toys. | |
| I thought it might have you noticed this thing for Lego movies, where they have these kind of action Lego movies now. | |
| Yeah, Lego Star Wars, and they're making and they're making a Lego Batman. | |
| So I assume when I hear that Kinder Eggs and and Lego have washed up on a German island, that it in fact that's where the Lego department of Lego homeland Lego security actually takes all the kinder eggs, and this is a new action movie in which Lego Homeland Security Lego agents seize all the kindergas at the border and then bury them on an obscure German island. | |
| I'm just pitching things to Paramount out here. | |
| Feel free to give me a call if you're out in Hollywood, uh, and I'll be happy to come in and explain the uh the first draft of the script in more detail. | |
| But it's coming to a multiplex near you. | |
| Mark Stein in for rush, lots more straight ahead. | |
| You know, this uh porous southern border in America is getting worse. | |
| There's a llama on the loose in the town of Athens, Georgia. | |
| A llama casually wandering along Eppsbridge Parkway, just outside Athens, Georgia. | |
| Uh this is not going to happen. | |
| The minute that Trump wall goes up, no llama is gonna get across the Rio Grande ever again. |
