As someone who was a college student in the late 1960’s it took me a few years to recognize that the left does not have good intentions. It is all about power and a belief in writings of Marx, Lenin, Trotsky, Mao, Fidel and so for an so with NO critical thinking.
I’m a bit younger, but was very fortunate to be placed right in the heart of Leftism during college at ESU. From there, it was just a matter of reading what they were handing out and going to a couple of their ‘teach-ins’, where they discussed the ‘revolution’, and THEY WERE NOT JOKING.
What amazes me is how Rush figured out the same, considering that I doubt his exposure came close to matching mine.
