Rush Limbaugh's Influence on American Racism TOP TEN Racist Limbaugh Quotes For those of you who are uninformed or who could even care less, this commentary is to enlighten you as to one of the many reasons why in the new millennium Blacks and other minority groups continue to face prejudice and discrimination in today's society. The inconspicuous influence of the conservative talk show host, Rush Limbaugh, and all the "ditto heads" that believe in and practice his ideology contributes largely to the subtle bigotry in the country. The reason his influence is so pervasive is because it is wide-spread, spilling from the top of political and cultural influence and trickling down to suburban families in upper class areas, who are people that make up most of corporate management, a large amount of local and state government, and vote overwhelmingly Republican. Limbaugh, however, is not necessarily a racist, but in politically correct terms, a gatekeeper of pluralists' imperialism in the first degree. His method is to appeal to the good ole' boy patriot, who practices elitist Protestantism and with a strong dosage of the capitalist spirit, the main ingredients in the ideologies of the founding fathers and the blatant racist in early America. What appealing to this mind-set does is maintain a sense of sacred superiority amongst white males of prominent stature. The untouchable politicians and lawmakers that are supposed to represent the masses of the people, the ones who are difficult to reach and impossible to get an appointment with, and are the ones who decide the direction of America despite the demands and wishes of the people. He promotes rugged individualism, which over time requires an unwavering amount of selfishness in any person. He uses subtle innuendos of racism in his dialogue speaking in an elitist-coded language that he believes only a select few are supposed to understand. He insinuates continuously, undermining the capabilities and reputation of the Black race. He never has anything positive to say about Black people or any Black leaders, politicians, sports figures or any Black figure that makes the news. He condemned the judgment of Colin Powell repeatedly during Powell's reign with President Bush, implying animosity between Powell and Bush each time. This imbeds negative images into the minds of his listeners who apparently have not the ability to separate one Black person from another, and he uses this method purposely and in every area of Black efforts. When he speaks of Blacks, he speaks in generalities all the time. What this does is categorizes the Black race as incompetent and incapable of simple duties and responsibilities of citizenship and every other negative stereotype he can conjure up that day. In turn, the many thousands of his listeners come away with a general attitude about Blacks all together. As stated earlier, many of his listeners are entrepreneur type, small business owners and corporate fat cats who have the ability to hire and fire from high government positions down to local community businesses. He is not a blatant racist as the liberal media would have people to think, but he is a subtle bigot with widespread influence over many white minds. This man has millions of dollars and access to many influential people who make decisions for the rest of America. His followership consists of mostly whites and some Uncle Tom Blacks. This website is comprised of Limbaugh flunkys and one that regurgitates the ideologies of Rush Limbaugh and the ideologies minorities fight against to this day and in the coming future. Clear Channel Communications carries his radio broadcast over 1500 + radio stations in the United States and has done nothing to stop this man of inciting race hatred and instilling animosity against Blacks, Hispanics, Asians and other minorities in this country. Someone needs to confront Clear Channel execs to stop promoting race-hatred propaganda. But no politician seems to have the guts to challenge them, simply because they are subtle racist themselves. The children of Limbaugh's listeners absorb subtle racist concepts from their parents and attend all white suburban schools with children of similar character. These enclosed groups of untouchables are many in number and are growing stronger because of Limbaugh's teachings and influence on the political and racial culture in America. What Black America must do is know this fact and learn to recognize this mentality when confronted with it Though one will not confront an individual with this mind-set any one day, you live and breath it daily simply visiting every day places. It is not outwardly apparent, but the disease thrives on the inward parts of many white Americans. Know that the attempt to keep Blacks subservient is still procedure to Euro-elitist, only in a more devious form. TOP TEN Racist Limbaugh Quotes © 2004 by CR Hamilton
