Twinblade★ 3,892 Posted March 29, 2021 Share Posted March 29, 2021 Great book. He identifies himself as a liberal but has absolutely no tolerance for what modern liberalism is becoming, including the cancel culture trend. I recommend it if you need something new and interesting to read Link to post Share on other sites

I just finished the book and it was a pretty valuable read though. I didn't always agree with some of the arguments he would make but that just highlights the while point of the book and what it stands for: Exposing cancel culture and the damage its doing to our democracy & free speech rights.

Remember 4 or 5 years ago people were saying "oh this shit will die down, it's just university campuses". But of course the kids graduate and become adults and get jobs at media companies and in government or become teachers themselves and promote more of this Stalinist Marxism authoritarian bullshit. It's going to get worse before it gets better. Link to post Share on other sites

Its just a small group of people whos toxic opinions are amplified because of social media. And then you have the fact that even though the majority are against it, they can't actually express their thoughts because then they'll make themselves targetsand be shamed as racists, bigots, transphobic, etc just for not conforming to the same hive mentality.

Of course you would hate it, progressives are the least open minded people out there and automatically look at everything through a lens of negativity. Link to post Share on other sites

I read way more than you, and across a much broader spectrum. Which is painfully obvious because you never seem to know what is happening outside of rightwing Facebook. Hey remember way back this weekend when you claimed MLK would be sad about the same things he died actually fighting for? Which isn't your fault, it's the primary and secondary school curriculum that let's you believe that nonsense you thought. Also how hypocritical of you to talk about open mindedness and you read a book by an idiotic trump boot licker who simply hates "wokism" as much as you do. Is kind of bigot, and acts like a disgruntled child. Your favorite type of person. LMFAO NIGGA PLEASE Edited January 24, 2022 by Mr. Impossible Link to post Share on other sites

In fact, I barely scratched the surface. Edit: This is exactly why I call you a psychopath. It's like this is an argument you soundly loss yet somehow in your fucking twisted mind you're still right. It's fucking crazy. Edited January 24, 2022 by Mr. Impossible Link to post Share on other sites
