Hello and welcome. It is Eric Erickson here. The Eric Erickson show across the nation from Atlanta, Georgia, where traffic is a nightmare. My gosh. I may just camp out at the office tonight because it'll take so long to get home. All right. We got to talk about schools.

I meant to talk about the first hour, but we got sidetracked on energy.

It is Friday, so we're a little loose on with phone calls here.

It's a free for all for you.

877-97-9-7-3-7-4-25 if you want to call in.

In 19... 3-7-4-25 if you want to call in. In 1966, let's step into the way back machine.

Before I was born, I will have you know.

In 1966, Mao Zedong, the chairman of the Chinese Communist Party, the founder of the People's Republic of China, started what became known as the Cultural Revolution.

The goal was to purge capitalists and traditionalists from Chinese society and essentially

create a personality cult around Mao Zedong.

He encouraged young people to bombard the headquarters, that is, of the Communist Party, and told them

that to rebel is justified.

He claimed the bourgeois was obstructing the cultural revolution.

It's the middle class.

It's the middle class, the upper middle class. It's the middle class to upper middle class.

It's not the rich.

It's the non-blue-collar middle class that in this country,

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is intent on wiping out.

He claimed the bourgeois, the upper middle class,

wanted to restore capitalism and needed to be fought.

And one of the things that he began to do was to hold struggle sessions and to get the young people on college campuses to hold struggle sessions.
