How to silence a majority -- How the authoritarian left renormalized America -- The creation of a new ruling class -- How science[trademark symbol] defeated actual science -- Your authoritarian boss -- The radicalization of entertainment -- The fake news -- Unfriending Americans.
We all come to moments when we face pivotal decisions, but many feel that they have no guidance for how to make good choices. In 'The Authoritarian Moment', Ben Shapiro lays out the seven most important decisions we'll ever make, and provides a framework for how to make those decisions with virtue and wisdom.
Shapiro knows there are totalitarians on the political Right. But statistically, they represent a fringe movement with little institutional clout. The authoritarian Left, meanwhile, is ascendant in nearly every area of American life. A small number of college-educated, coastal, and uncompromising leftists have not just taken over the Democratic Party but our corporations, our universities, our scientific establishment, our cultural institutions. And they have used their newfound power to silence their opposition. Shapiro lays bare the intolerance and rigidity creeping into all American ideology, and prescribes the solution to ending the authoritarianism that threatens our future. -- adapted from jacket
