Hour 3 of A&G features...

  • The clash at UCLA...
  • Mass protests are the political default for progressives... 
  • David Sanger's book on the Ukraine war...
  • The Columbia student who needs a glass of water! 

From the Abraham Lincoln Radio studio at the George Washington Broadcast Center, Jack Armstrong and Joe Getty Armstrong and Getty Show.

It was a quite extraordinary scene. It was around two am Eastern. We first got word that a group of counter protesters had arrived on campus and were beginning to confront the pro Palestinian protesters who've been there for several days. And then within minutes of them arriving, there were clashes breaking out right across the quad there in front of Royce Hall. Protesters and counter protesters went at each other with huge wooden poles. They went at each other with pepper spray. They went at each other with firecrackers, tossing them into crowds, literally right in the middle of groups of people gathered.

This should be the biggest story the last twenty four on the whole campus protest. Columbia is getting all the attention. But they cleared that hale out and no real violence. Arrested a bunch of people. There was serious violence on the campus of UCLA last night eleven o'clock California time. Fifty dudes with poles and firecrackers and all this different sort of stuff. Showed up and started wailing on the pro Hamas protesters and no cops anywhere, as you'll hear here.

We've been watching this unfolded for more than an hour now. It is astonishing to see this level of lawlessness.

That is just the unmans. There's just nobody here to break this up.

This is what we're seeing right now is obviously coordinated effort in the encampment to try to push back against these agitators who pounced on them earlier. So this is just this is just unfolding. As it's unfolding with these people at the helm, there is nobody here to intervene.

That reporter was talking about being one hour in and it was astonishing that there there's no police presence. It went on for three hours before cops showed up.

Yeah that's Genus Silva Fox eleven LA I believe. Yeah, well done there. It was funny, strange funny. At the beginning, it sounded like half Gangs of New York and half a rave as the music was pumping and these guys were beating the hell out of each other and throwing fireworks and bare spray and the rest of it.

Yeah, so the pro Hamas crowd had a big speaker system with music. The fifty dudes, who appear to all be around thirty years old and aren't college kids, who showed up with weapons. Among the things they did was take that giant speaker system from the pro Hamas crowd, and they took it and were playing the music at them.

I don't know what that battle was that part.

I'm less worried about you playing music at me than being hit in the head with a giant wooden pole.

Right, yeah, I would agree.

The number of things going on here. Who are the pro Israel people? Why was there no police presidence there whatsoever?

Don't know.

Why hasn't the governor said a word about the fact that one of the most prestigious universities on the planet.

There are videos floating.

Around on social media with Jewish kids getting turned away.

From classes and libraries. Are you a Jew? Yes? Are you a Zionist? Yes, You're not going to class.

By the way, ninety five percent of worldwide Jews or Zionists, So you're basically saying Jews can't go to class or go to the library.

Right in a state where if you mis gender someone you can go to jail. Yeah, you can bar Jews from going to class, and the governor's silent.

It's disgusting.

And we got a clip somewhere this is from Columbia last night where they one of the guys that got arrested said, it's okay, I don't care if I'm arrested.

I'll be out in the day, just like all the other criminals here in town.

So the whole arresting people in Blue Cities is not going to do anything. You've got to threaten them with kicking them out of class, kicking him out of school. Of course, a lot of these people aren't members of the school, so you can't threaten them with that. Yeah, they're professional agitators, or they're paid to agitators, or they're just committed neo Marxists who come from around the country wherever there's heat. They were in Portland attacking the courthouse night after night.

They were a part of the BLM riots after George Floyd did that incident. They're professional. They're trying to tear down the less. They're trying to tear down the United States. They are hell bent on ending the experiment that is the United States. This is not some sort of hyperbolic talk show guy nuttiness.

Ask them, they will tell you they hide it.

But no, if you get down to brass tacks, they'll tell you how many of the demonstrators know that.

Well.

See, that's the thing with Marxism, and it's always been. You have the activists who employ the useful idiots to be their attack dogs. You whip them up with you know, you know, a self righteous rage over Hamas or the Palestinian thing, or transgender rights or queer rights or Black.

Lives Matter or whatever. The point is.

You get people emotionally whipped up, and then you have them tear down the system for whatever reason that particular protest is citing.

But it all ends up the same. I absolutely love this clip.

This is from the University of Georgia where they are not playing around. The Red States did not play around. They said you have an hour to go, and if you don't go, we're going to drag you out of here and kick you out of school, at least to the students. This is such a beautiful example of the cry bully strategy that Marxists use. They will beat your head in, they will call for the extermination of the Jews, but if you, for instance, grab them by the hoodie, they shriek like you're setting fire to their heads. Listen to this utterly hilarious. You know, just acting job.

Had stop.

He's complying, get off students.

You're like, this is the second time this man has sush a student.

That we've gotten on camera. Second time he's such a student we've gotten on camera. Pulled this man by his hoodie. Shade shade.

So it's a bunch of students who had clustered together, like in a group hugs so they couldn't be arrested. And the cops were simply pulling him apart. And they pulled the one guy back by his hoodie. And these people are shrieking like you would if they're like pulling his guts out in some sort of Brave Hearts style torture.

They removed his eye, They took out his eye. They're pulling it by the hoody they're pulling.

They pulled his hooey, Barbara, take hysterics, my god, the hysteric, Oh my god, they pulled that the honey what what so help me? Allowed me understand this young lady. And it's like katy percent.

Young women fall as it usually is.

So you chant from the river to the sea, Palestine will be free, and we want ten thousand more October seventh, which is the brutal torture and murder of men, women and children, and yet being pulled by the hoodie you see as some sort of torture that's too much to endure. Help me understand. Don't fall for their crap. Enforce the law, enforce the rules. Tell them we don't want Marxism in the United States. We're representative democracy. We want we want the Constitution. Don't put up with anything else, and don't accept anything less from.

Your rotten, rotten universities.

And you see it, which I think should be the biggest story in America today. Maybe it will be later as the East Coast finally catches up to what actually happened.

I don't know, but.

Well, now they did arrest three hundred people at Columbia and NYUS.

That's pretty good. I don't feel like that's as big a story as the.

A violent group decided to push back against UCLA last night. I mean, that is, oh my god, among the things happening at ucl yesterday before so during the in the evening, the UCLA administrators announced the encampment has to go. Whether they were actually going to enforce that or not, who knows. But then these fifty guys with sticks showed up and decided toforce it themselves. But among the things they were doing on this pro anti war protest, as the media called it, they had giant screen set up and they were playing footage from the October seventh attack. They were playing giant video screens. Oh the humas murderers going through doing their thing on a.

Is what is the message there?

And anybody's surprised that thirty to fifty Jewish men and or friends of Jewish people decided to show up and put an end to that?

S why are you surprised by that?

Also, I had the video and I don't know how easy it is to hear, but I watched this several times. Yesterday a USLA student barred from using the library because he is a Zionist, and the guys in masks blocking him and saying are you a Zionist wouldn't let him go in.

In the background, you can hear chance of.

A la acbar which man that goes back to if we are closer to nine to eleven. That would be the story back when we were all worried about that.

That is extremely troubling, I say, correspond to Dave wrote me personally, the Fox eleven people live streaming the UCLA riot, we're getting very adamant about where is the governor? He is on the UC Board of Regents in addition to everything else, and someone should wake up the governor and expressing how bad it was that the police were nowhere to be found for hours. Yeah, and then he describes it was pretty unsettling watching people just beating on each other for hours.

What is your explanation for why there were no cops for three hours?

Well, the best I can do is that you remember we played Reagan Ronald Reagan yesterday, his very decisive, very simple Look, the rules exist. If you break the rules, we're going to take care of it. This is the opposite of that. On California university campuses, the leadership is the opposite. It's a bunch of moral relativist proud of, or certainly condoning of the neo Marxists. They've been teaching them this crap, and so they're like, how do I crack down on this? These people are doing exactly what I've taught him to do.

I think that's it.

And they're terribly indecisive because they're cowards, and so they saw the melee breakout, just they didn't have the.

Balls to do anything about it.

If you haven't seen the video yet, it's pretty extraordinary. I mean, whoever they are fifty dudes that showed up saying Wayne having this shooting fireworks at the lots of wooden structures and tents and stuff like that. I don't know if that's an attempt to catch it on fire or whatever. And then they rush it with these bats and start beating on tents and people and stuff.

It's amazing. There weren't any deaths or serious injuries. Yeah. Yeah.

Were they righteous defenders of American jewelry? Were they thugs looking for a fight? Who knows?

Well.

The history of the Jewish people is they figured out a long long time ago they got to stand up for themselves or nobody else will.

Yeah, many went passively to their deaths in World War Two, and the idea of Israel is that's not going to happen ever again.

But certainly this is the most violence we've seen on any campus so far.

Yeah.

Well, and I would argue that lawlessness breeds lawlessness. If you allow these Marxist pro Hamas kids to break the rules over and over and over again for days weeks at a time, you're going to get more lawlessness.

Sure, if the governor had come out right away after that video was making the rounds on Monday, if the governor had come out and said, this will not stand.

This will not stand.

We have a campus here in California where they're telling Jews they cannot go to class.

That is appalling. We will not put upbout this.

You probably wouldn't have had the fifty guys with Matt's show up yesterday.

Oh of course not No.

And if he'd said, look, all right, you've raised some questions about campus policies or investments or whatever. We're going to have a series of hearings and forums which you can come and speak at.

But your tense got to go. Now. Okay, Hanson's saying we should play clip fifty two. Let's hear that.

The reason why this is happening is because Jews in the LA have had enough. They've seen how these pro Hamas protesters are treating Jews students on campus. And they said, fine, if UCLATE administration is not going to do anything, if LAPD is not going to do anything.

We're going to do something about it.

Never encourage violence. Okay, we don't as a show, we don't as individuals. But if I saw my people being barred from classes because of their religion by thugs or sympathetic to the most brutal terrorists on earth, if I was young enough, I'd go down there with a bat.

For sure. You and your friends, of course you would.

And again I'm not saying it's a good idea or anybody should, but I understand the anger.

What's your other option? Capitulate? Roll over? I don't see what else you do.

I'm reminded of something I said over and over again as Portland was going down in flames post George Floyd. They think they can passive their way out of this, and they can't.

It's not gonna or never. Can you have any thoughts on this? Text line four one KFTC.

Well, we're seeing a lot.

Of chaotic it's a chaotic scene.

As you can see, they're tossing all kinds of different things into the air.

We don't know.

Exactly what that is. You have been watching this for some time. Describe your reaction to all of this. It's just a disgrace.

What's going on here? This is in America anymore. We don't feel safe to come out. We're just going back literally eighty years. This is literally history repeating itself.

How should it have been handled? Again?

Look at Austin, Texas. Great government, great way to handle it. Came National Guard thing, lost it in three days, everybody in and out.

That's it. That's it, That's how it should have been handling.

Look what's going on?

Where's the police? Where's LAPD?

Yeah, I feel like I'm going crazy. That's how I started the show today. I feel like I'm going crazy. I just I can't make sense of what's going on in the world right now.

I don't know. I don't know. I thought to all. The Street journal nailed part of what's going on.

They point out their editorial board that the mass protest method has become the political default for progressive So I'm quoting now. When they lose the policy debate in Congress, the White House, the courts, or other institutions, they keep going to the barricades because it often gets them what they want. Clearest example was the post George Floyd riots of twenty twenty. The left used that murder to trigger and then condone riots and numerous cities against what they claimed was widespread police abuse. Looting, in vandalism, and arson and murder were justified as social justice rage.

Fearful of these.

Protests, democratic mayors and city councils around the country slash police funding, eliminated cash bail, and stopped enforcing many crimes. Vice presidential candidate and moron Kamala Harris tweeted support I departed from the text, They're pretty science Zoom tweeted support for a bail fund for protesters who are arrested burning and looting in Minnesota. The Democratic convention in twenty twenty failed to condemn the rioting.

And there are a bunch more examples of that.

But remember Patrice on that videotape, one of the founders of BLM said, oh, we're trained Marxists, as I've been trying to tell you. One result was an urban crimes free that broke out across the country. Cities from Philly San Francisco still trying to recover political Oh, but in that election year, the mob created the impression of disorder that probably hurt Donald Trump's campaign for reelection. Political mission accomplished, and they gave a bunch more examples, the giant riots in Seattle after the World Trade or during the World Trade Organization meetings, so called occupy movements, and these anti Israel pro homas rallies. They're getting what they want because we lack the spine as a country to arrest people who break the law, arrest trespassers, the violent people. We won't call these demonstrations what they are. I cherish free speech. I think you ought to speak till your jaws hurts. I think you all ought to right editorials. You ought to know the talk and do anything you want to try to persuade people.

You start breaking the law, we start enforcing the law. It's as simple as that.

This is a very big story, but it's obliterating other big stories that should get coverage, like, for instance, China just caught crossed a major red line Biden had set.

Are we going to respond?

Armstrong and getty.

President Biden not speaking up against this week's campus chaos himself. We need the President of the United States to speak to the issue and say this is wrong.

The President seems unable or unwilling to do that.

Instead, we get this from spokesman Andrew Bates. He condemns the use of the term into fada, and this from John Kirby.

The President believes it forcibly taken over a building on campus is absolutely the wrong approach.

The limits of the administration's response came into focus on Capitol Hill today.

Do you have people at Columbia right now on the scene to see what's going on there?

Do you have staff there to watch? I do not have staff, as you know. I'm sorry.

I'm struck by the phrase the wrong approach. If I see somebody breaking into my neighbor's house, excuse me, I think you're taking the wrong approach. I see somebody bullying an old lady, for instance, excuse me, that's the wrong approach.

So I was going to make this segment about Joe Biden more than the campus thing. But so his lack of response of showing any like real national leadership on this sort of thing is a problem. I think most Democrats are practically everybody realizes that. And I was just reading something from David Axelrod where he said they're allowing a situation where Trump is going to be able to find Joe Biden as the chaos candidate, which is really quite a turn of events. A couple of the things Joe Biden related. The White House is officially fixed one hundred and forty eight missas this year. They keep track of this. In twenty twenty four, one hundred and forty eight times the White House has to put out a correction about something Joe Biden said. Now, what's missing from this reporting is any list of how often did that happen with Trump or Obama or any other president. I don't know what that number is because it happens occasionally, but I'm thinking it's not one hundred and forty eight times five months into the year that most White Houses have to correct what the President just said. That's extraordinary, including when he said the opposite of what he meant on a number of occasions. Yeah, and then that brings us to this on Joe Biden. Now, I'm obsessed with great power conflict right now as I'm reading the David Sanger book, The New Cold Wars, and it's just flip and fascinating. God went through this segment yesterday where the Trump administration. This is when it all the rubber met the road and America finally woke up.

And this wasn't just Trump being right, It's just the timing of it all.

I think this might have happened with any president, but where we all woke up to the fact of what China is doing. In twenty thirteen, President she gave a secret speech to the other Communist Party leaders. And maybe you've read this online because it's out now and it gets quoted a lot, but he gave this secret speech in twenty thirteen about how, hey, our goal the world is a zero sum game, and we plan to be on top. It's against the United States and economically, militarily, whatever it takes, we're going to replace the United States as the great world power. He gave the speech in twenty thirteen. It finally came out in twenty nineteen. They put it out. Nobody's exactly sure what that message was that China put out and made it clear that this is what we're up to. And so that came out during the Trump administration and since then there's been a different tone to a certain extent about the whole China deal. Up until that moment, we are all still buying the whole now they're okay, just you know, being right behind us as the second economic power but still getting rich.

No, that is not it at all.

And today in the Wall Street Journal there's an opinion piece mentioning this because this has got lost during all the protests. China has crossed Biden's red line on Ukraine. The President warned g not to provide materials support to Russia.

Will there be consequences?

Now.

One of the things David Sanger points out a lot in his new book is all the different red lines that have been crossed, with a number of presidents, particularly pointing out, for instance, Barack Obama's red line with Syria, which let Putin know that, oh, okay, nothing happens, these whole red line things, which almost certainly led to him feeling emboldened to go into Ukraine and all this different sort of stuff.

On Friday, I'm reading from the Wall Street Journal.

Now.

On Friday, Secretary of State Anthony Blincoln conceded that Jijingping had ignored the warning. China, mister blincln said, was overwhelmingly the number one supplier of Russia's military industrial base. Right now with the material effect of having fundamentally changed the course of the war. That's a pretty strong statement when your boss drew a red line no material support for Russia, and now your Secretary of State is out there saying overwhelmingly the number one supplier of material support and has fundamentally changed the war by supporting. Whatever mister Biden chooses to do next will be monumentous for global security and stability. Biden can either enforce his red line through sanctions or other means, or he can signal a collapse of American resolve by applying merely symbolic penalties. Beijing, in its strategic partners in Moscow, Turan, Pyonyang in North Korea would surely interpret half hearted enforcements as a green light to deepen their campaign of global chaos. Mister g sees a historic opportunity here to undermine the West. This is a moment akin to President Obama's twenty thirteen red line in Syria which we just talked about, which he did not enforce, and six months later Moscow launched its twenty fourteen invasion of Crimea, the beginning of the now decade long Ukraine War.

Mister Biden drew his red line.

In March of twenty twenty two, three weeks after Putin went into his full scale invasion in Ukraine, mister Biden said after a video call with mister g that day, you know drew his red line of no material support. Biden said he made sure the Chinese president understood he would be putting himself in significant jeopardy if he were across that red line. And as the Wall Street Journal says, maybe nobody else is paying attention to this, but a guarantee a president, she's paying attention to. Okay, tough guy, You're gonna do anything or not, And my guess is we're not going to do anything. I'm struck by this, this recurring thought that if I'd been presented with this case study back when I was studying this sort of thing at the University of Illinois and or Banish Champagne recently declared one of the New Ivys by forbesmagazine dot com website, which makes me better than you because I swilled beer and chase chicks at one of the New Ivys. You were swilling beer and chasing chicks at a lesser institution.

Absolutely, and clearly your wife is clearly better for it. Oh yeah, an elite university. Anyway, if they presented me with a case study that, all right, you got two superpowers, one of which is vowed to wipe the other one out and assume it's world leadership. But they're so intertwined economically speaking that lots and lots of the citizens of the would be victim of this wiping out are super soft on the very people who would oppress them and take away all the rights.

It'd be like, no country would be that stupid.

No, no, no, no, that one power wants to take away everything that other power has, so the power that would be on the receiving and there's no way they would be that soft on it, just for you know, the trade reasons, so they can continue to get their decreasingly inexpensive iPhones for the price that they are. And yet we're in this impossible situation where I mean, as consumers, I don't need.

Cheap T shirts. I mean, well, that's fine, we will get over that.

But the very corporate power houses that fund government to a large extent and fund the candidates and lobby like fiends are calling for weakness against an avowed adversary.

So one of the things David Tanger points out in his book, and this is worth remembering. It's not just the United States, it's the entire West that is so incredibly soft. We're just convinced that we'll always be in charge and the world order is going to last forever and whatever, and and Sanger points out maybe the worst decision made since World War Two by any Western major country was Germany going along with Nordstream too. Oh yeah, having been warned over and over and over again that what Russia wants to do, what they're planning to do, what this will do to help their economy and make them stronger, and Europe, led by Germany, signed off on, Yeah, go ahead, build a pipeline that goes around Ukraine so that he can invade Ukraine and not disrupt that and everything like that and continue to make money because you're so selfish and want cheaper gas that you're willing to do that. And oh, by the way, that Chancellor at the time, which his name is slipping onto my head right now, went on to work for the gas company that was going to benefit for that as soon as he left office. I mean, that's one of the worst things that has happened in modern history geopolitically. Yeah, was that Cole or Schmidt? I can't remember and it doesn't matter.

And Schmidt, Yeah, the idea of hey, everybody, I've got a great idea. Let's become dependent on a patently evil regime or person.

It's like becoming a drug addict.

I mean, hey, hey, I'm going to be you know, controlled by the Mexican cartels. But it'll be fine because I'll be high. I mean, what an idiotic decision.

I I don't know what to say about this. I mean, the history of it.

I could start writing the history now and save a historian fifty years from now. The time going through all this, I mean, China has announced what they want to do, how they want to do it, and we're all going along with it. All of Western society is just going along with it. I guess, go ahead, take over from it. So when China finally moves on Taiwan or whatever they finally do, and it's too late. Oh, the announcement today of their new latest aircraft carrier. It wasn't very many years ago that China didn't have a single aircraft carrier. Now their navy is bigger than our navy and they're getting newer, fancier aircraft carriers. It's just, I mean, it's just it's all out there, and so our presidents are going to draw red lines and then completely ignore them. So my final question on this, why do you think the Secretary of State laid out laid it out that clearly, not behind the scenes, not hey, we know what you did or anything like that.

Why did he say that out loud? Thinking?

I think part of it is that we are now in earnest in a campaign season and they are desperate to polish their tough on China bona fides because Trump was famously i mean fearless in provoking China trade wars, terris the rest of it, sanctions, that's that's got to be.

So it helps you to point out that we've got a red line and the other side just crossed.

It, maybe to justify whatever's coming next.

Well, if something's coming next, yeah, that your your idea makes sense if something's coming.

Next, yeah yeah. And I don't know.

I've actually been reasonably pleased with the Biden administration on very very little, but their China policies have been okay.

Boy, something better come next. Don't you dare support Russia and now they're the number one supporter and according to the Secretary State, it's fundamentally changed the trajectory of the war.

So they are the one words pain don't. Don't, Yeah, don't.

Joe Biden could go down in history as like the reason it all fell apart.

He really could. He thinks Trump's going to go down in history is that. I think it's going to be him. We have six months to go.

I pray that six months goes by without like historic disaster that's talked about for hundreds of years.

I'm serious, man, that's some troubling stuff. Yeah.

Well, whoops, sorry, sorry, do we have anything cheering and uplifting?

Not about that came across this headline what uh what? Workers drink the most gig economy jobs? You know who drinks a lot? People doing gig economy jobs. Some of the stats on that are kind of funny or interesting or confusing, spending on how you look at it.

Bunch stuff on the way, Stay with us, strong, like a home.

A few it's finals. I want to go home, said one of the protesters. It's fine, one of the brave revolutionaries. The college kids are so in that college kid world where they think all that sort of stuff is so flipp and important makes me mad. Uh, you're gonna find this chick entertaining. If you haven't heard her yet, she's making the rounds on all of social media. Everybody latched onto this. It's so crazy it seems like it almost has to be made up. I mean, she's she's an instructor at Columbia getting her PhD in Marxist poetry, which we can tell you more about later. Yeah, you can get a PhD in Marxist poetry. Her name is Johanna King Slutsky, but someday you're going to have to call her doctor Slutsky because she is a PhD in Marxist poetry.

That's a thing.

Anywapecifically on fantasies of limitless energy in the Transatlantic Romantic imagination from seventeen sixty to eighteen sixty.

And people act like this is important.

But she was angry that they weren't allowing the police and whoever weren't allowing grub hub to deliver food to Hamilton Hall where the protesters had illegally taken that over. They've all been arrested and kicked out by now, but she's mad that they weren't letting food in, and she did a press conference here.

It goes, why be obligated to provide food to people who've taken.

Over a building?

Well, first of all, we're saying that they're obligated to provide food to students who pay for a meal plan here.

But you mentioned that there was a requested that food and water be brought in unless I mist.

To allow it to be brought in. I mean, well, I guess it's ultimately a question of what kind of community and obligation Columbia feels it has to its students. Do you want students to die of dehydration and starvation or get severely ill, even if they disagree with you. If the answer is no, then you should allow basic I mean it's crazy to say because we're on an Ivy League campus, but this is like basic humanitarian aid we're asking for, like could people please to have a glass of water?

But they didn't put themselves in that very deliberately, in that situation and in that position, So it seems like you're sort of saying, we want to be revolutionaries, we want to take up this building now, would you please bring us food and water?

Nobody's asking them to bring anything everything. We're asking them to not violently stop us from bringing in basic humanitarian aid.

They're staffing the delivery of do We.

Are looking for a commitment from them that they will not stop it.

Well, I don't, I'm not.

I don't know to what extent it has been attempted, but we're looking for a commitment.

So absurdity.

Assume to be doctor slutskig And is getting her degree in theories of the imagination and poetry as interpreted through a Marxian lens. It really sounds made up, I know, but it's a that's actually a thing. And as it seems like you're saying, we want to be revolutionaries, but we want to take over this building. Now, would you please bring us some food. We're not asking it to bring us anything. Just don't violently stop us from getting anything so that DoorDash or grub hub can show up. Which is we all have like door dash cards our parents gave us that we can use as much as we want. So we're ordering food. You just have to let it show up.

I mean, we get so hungry we can't get our Marxist revolution going, So please let the grab hub throw. These people are so absurd, their goals are so ugly, their philosophy is so repugnant.

Why does anybody go along with these morons?

I guess because they just see the drive by media saying they're anti war protesters, and they think I don't like war either.

How did we ever get to a place where a chunk of society looks up to people who get PhDs in theories of imagination poetry through a Marxian lens, big freaking deal.

And this person who's worked as a political strategist for leftistant progressive causes remains active in the higher education labor movement. It's because we didn't notice what was happening on our schools, in our schools and on our college campuses. And I'm talking k through PhD for a long time, they're teaching this stuff, and now we're reaping what we've sown, or what we allowed them to sew. The radical left, they took over the education system.

Clearly, God, if we can culturally get away from the whole lifting up certain universities and kids who go there and acting like they're special.

Ugh, I've never liked it.

But tell you what, if your local school is teaching the genderbread person, they're down with all of this. They're part of the same thing. Trust me when I tell you this, it's all part of the same thing. Poetry through a Marxian lens. And what are you going to do with that?

PhD?

And you could really like say anything on it because nobody could call you. Well, that's a misinterpretation of the Translittlekanic romantic imagination.

From seventeen sixty to eighteen forty. Well it is, or it's not. Armstrong and getty
