Newsmax Host Thinks Liberals Are Pushing A 'Twerking Epidemic' To Corrupt Kids

Newsmax host Eric Bolling believes that he has figured out why children are becoming "corrupted" in America, and he blames it on a "twerking epidemic" that is somehow being pushed by liberals. This is the same scare tactic that prudes have pushed for centuries related to dances and music, and Bolling is apparently repeating all those old Puritan talking points that never seem to die. Farron Cousins discusses this.

Thank God for Newsmax folks, because if it wasn't for conservative media outlets like Newsmax, we wouldn't know what to be afraid of on any given day. And this week, Newsmax host former disgraced Fox news host, Eric bowling told us the latest thing that we have to be afraid of. And that is of course, in his own words, the twerking epidemic here in the United States, there is a twerking epidemic. And, uh, I don't wanna put any words in his mouth. So here is Eric Bo bowling warning us about this twerking epidemic. Apparently coming to a city near you, take a look,

Remember the Democrat Rhode Island state, Senator twerking upside down and posting it to TikTok. This is apparently the Democrat's best, but really what all of this highlights is a generation of attention, hungry children who never grew up and under Joe Biden, the woke mob left is in charge and they're making America a laughing stock. Look at this, a parent forcing her child who appears not to want any part of it, forcing him to watch radical. L G B T activists. That's right. You guessed it twerk during pride celebrations, which was twerk thing. Not only is this the moral decay in America, but there's clearly a twerking epidemic. And the leftwing mob is doing everything. Everything they can to keep the twerking going and corrupt our nation's youth. That's how they can radically transform America folks. That's what they wanted to do. Deprive children of their innocence, destroy the family unit.

Yep. It's the twerking that, that is where the kids are going wrong. And of course, you've got the one video of the kid who clearly didn't want to be in the parade. And I gotta tell you, especially as a parent of four, that's probably the first kid that didn't ever want to be where the parents made them go ever. Right? I mean, everybody who was out there as parents says, know that your kids always behave and always want to go where you take them. Right. We've never seen behavior like that in that video from a child ever it's clearly because of the twerking look, I've had kids do that to me when I'm taking them to Disney world, I don't wanna be here anymore. It's hot. I'm tired. Yeah. We have no idea what the context was of that kid. Not wanting to be a part of, uh, watching that parade in the hot, hot summer sun.

So good try there bowling. But, uh, as usual swing in a miss and the twerking epidemic, right, as we all know, twerking is a dance move, I guess the best way to describe it. But his outrage here, his, his moral condemnation of twerking is similar to all of the moral condemnations of all of the different pop culture. Things that have happened for hundreds of years in this country alone. I mean, when the Charleston came out, they, they thought it was the devil's dance. Okay? The Charleston of all things, right? That was the twerking of the, the day. And people freaked out over that. They freaked out over dance halls. They freaked out over country line dancing. They freaked out over the Mac arena. They freaked out over rap music. When that became super popular here in this country, they freaked out over rock and roll.

They freaked out over alternative. They freaked out about MTV at, oh, you got the booty dancers on there. My God, there is nothing. These Puritans are not going to freak out about hell hundreds and hundreds of years ago, there were freak outs said, you could read about this. This is amazing. They were worried that children were reading too much. Again, hundreds of years ago, back over in Europe, they were worried that books were corrupting our children. They weren't going outside and playing enough because they were just too busy reading, similar to the arguments of parents today. Oh, they're spending too much dang time on their phones and iPads and, and video game boxes. And here's Eric bowling on Newsmax, basically doing the same thing. Oh, we're forcing the twerking. And it's some kind of, of course, liberal conspiracy to get quit kids twerking. Instead of, I don't know what go into church.

This is idiotic, but it's the same stupidity that we have seen as a species for hundreds of years, you freak out over whatever you can to try to deflect from the fact that maybe kids are kind of crappy toda
