Publisher Description
"Read this book, strengthen your resolve, and help us all return to reason." —JORDAN PETERSON
The West’s commitment to freedom, reason, and true liberalism have become endangered by a series of viral forces in our society today. Renowned host of the popular YouTube show “The SAAD Truth”, Dr. Gad Saad exposes how an epidemic of idea pathogens are spreading like a virus and killing common sense in the West. Serving as a powerful follow-up to Jordan Peterson’s book 12 Rules for Life Dr. Saad unpacks what is really happening in progressive safe zones, why we need to be paying more attention to these trends, and what we must do to stop the spread of dangerous thinking. A professor at Concordia University who has witnessed this troubling epidemic first-hand, Dr. Saad dissects a multitude of these concerning forces (corrupt thought patterns, belief systems, attitudes, etc.) that have given rise to a stifling political correctness in our society and how these have created serious consequences that must be remedied–before it’s too late.
Customer Reviews
Honey Badgerlicioius
I like what Gad is saying as much as I dislike the trans-English lexicon that academia is creating. Here’s to speaking one’s mind.
His advice to go honey badger against purveyors of new-speak on Facebook is a little too much. Having tried that approach, it settles little.
Speaking up - respectfully - and standing your ground, that I like. I am not a cisgendered male. I’m a man. A person. A human; who’s actions should be judged by my own merit and not some class I’m assigned to.
Outstanding – really forced me to think
There were things I loved and things that annoyed the heck out of me. And I had to wrestle with my own opinions in a space that was free to allow me to do so. This was excellent.
Spot on to leftist insanity
A must read for anyone sick of the absolute nonsense of the the left
