Well his future was writing a book 5 years later titled “Growing Up At 37” where he denounced his Marxist bull and he eventually made money on Wall Street and supported Gary Hart. He also put Abbie Hoffman in his place in a 1985 debate. Hoffman failed to condemn the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan and crushing Solidarity in Poland.

His writing is mostly sensational and superficial. So, the fact that he veered back into middle class, conservative mainstream America, as the whole country did in the 1980s, it's not necessarily even out of character for him. None the less, he definitely channeled some righteous moments in this era and anyway whatever, who are you Jesus Christ?

In the spring or summer of 1988, Donahue ran a classic episode since he was on vacation or just not on the air that day. I recorded it because I had just read a book about The Chicago Seven. It was a blast because I heard *Commie Asshole* peppered throughout my household as this show went on and I was laughing. I hated Rubin's politics too but found his interaction with Donahue and the audience and callers very entertaining. I also advised my family members that in the Soviet Union, they do not have TV shows like this. Vladimir Posner (Phil's colleague in the USSR) was still brainwashed somewhat and despite Glasnost in 1988, was not willing to allow firebrand Soviet versions of Jerry Rubin to be on Soviet TV. A few years later, my mother played this for her Junior High history class.

Jerry wanted freedom and peace. So did all the protesters in the 60s. He wouldn't kill for it, but boy he killed with his delivery, as an anarchist, as a revolutionary... And he would have killed for peace in the metaphorical sense; he was just DYING for peace! On THIS show, he called out Phil Donahue, used the show for his own noble purposes, which was the anti war, anti capitalist noble purpose. He didn't care about Phil Donahue, called the show plastic, but he still went on the show. Didn't he? He played the game, and the game sort of, in its own way, played him. But he got heard. Then it all changed. Yes it did. It's all so interesting. And SO poignant: he went from what he was here on this show to joining EST, becoming a suit and tie business man, in the 80s, who debated former cadre Abbie Hoffman. JERRY wasn't going to "hang on." Was he. HE was going to "get real." A different "real" in the 80s than from who HE was in the 60s. Right? What happened? My how people change. You just never know. Peace, love, and all that "getting real." My, my. Peace, love, and hang on, in these here tough times. ❤️ The whole WORLD'S gone capitalist. Isn't THAT interesting.

He showed that protest and counter culture can be countered easily with the policeman's club and that the roots of the counter culture will wither on the vine under the billy club's blows. However, when he became a successful businessman he showed that wealth is the route to true democracy because no one can argue with the dollar. He was only half right, however. Those who cannot attain wealth must put their lives on the line and prepare to die to make their fellows' lives worth more than the blow of the billy club from the paid lackey of the elites. Call them terrorist or freedom fighter, eventually they will shake hands with the Head of the UN or the US President if they can endure. Ask the North Vietnamese or the Israelis.

Rubin, Hoffman and the others were "professional protesters"---for years. By the early 1970s, Rubin and Hoffman were dudes who were approaching their mid-30's and who were living off of the money/generosity of 18, 19 and 20 year old college kids.---People who like 15 years younger than them. They literally had no shame. They were utterly shameless. Rubin and Hoffman were sponges....parasites.....taking food, weed, money for travel expenses....and anything else they could get.....from college kids.

No. Liberals are democrats. Centrists and right of center fake insincere political performers. Before his change in the 80s Jerry Rubin was much more left than these phony corrupt democrats

I'm not sure. Pretty sure I've seen ultra progressives talk about liberals in a derogatory way lately. They don't think liberals are socialist enough. Obama, for example, has gotten a lot of flak from the far left. I don't think the Sanders crowd calls themselves liberals.

Watching this classic episode of "Donahue", I have to applaud Phil Donahue for having tolerated Jerry Rubin's histrionics throughout the entire conversation, considering that it was an hourlong show. That was a far cry from Rubin's interview with Dorothy Fuldheim, who indignantly, but rightfully ended it because he came off as impertinent and irrational.

Irrational? He literally just said that people should smoke weed and it should be free, and she literally raged when he said that hes got friends in Black Panther Party.

@@thetumans1394 That will never happen. Marxist-Leninism has a default "vangaurd" of the Revolution which is an elite that always ends up being the "Pigs" of the Revolution. Far more Vietnamese and other Indochinese moved to the the United States and became Americans after the Communists took over. Compare that to how many Afghans moved to Russia after the Soviet-Afghan War ended?
