The Left Wants to Destroy America, Not Improve America

CALLER: … Do you think that we will evolve or move to more of a demographic-based minimum representation in Congress based on race, color, age, sexual preference, rather than an assumed representation geographically?

RUSH: his question was about are we eventually gonna have representation in government that is devoted to demographics rather than population. Well, believe me, there are people already attempting to make that a reality by virtue of belief systems, that only women can represent women, that only African-Americans can represent African-Americans, that only gays can represent gays.

That if any of these demographic groups are represented by somebody outside their group, then the representation isn’t fair because it can’t possibly be properly sensitive, it can’t be informed. And so we’re in the middle of the country purposefully being divided by virtue of our differences. There’s no hope of unity.

There can be no way people can come together after having been divided on the basis of our legitimate physical differences, unless the whole notion of identity politics is blown up and destroyed. And it would be a great thing if it were. Can you imagine — how many of you have kids that are in middle school, high school, college, and you talk to ’em and they come home and start talking to you in these terms and you don’t understand it.

RUSH: My point about identity politics earlier, it’s actually the ideal way to divide us, because identity politics is expressly devoted to our differences. You add to the reality of our differences that all but one group are a bunch of victimized minorities, then you have recipe for anger and resentment, then you can foster hatred, then you can create bullies and violence, angry mobs. And all of that is happening. But all of this is just the beginning. This is not the end. The left never offers solutions to anything.
