Ben Shapiro Knihy

Přežije západ ztrátu vyšších hodnot? Ben Shapiro v knize "Jak zachránit západní civilizaci" míří z pohledu dnešní krize Západu ke kořenům evropské kultury, na něž současná převažující materialistická a hédonistická kultura zapomněla. Vysvětluje, že bez dědictví Athén a Jeruzaléma je ohrožena nejen svoboda a řád, soudržnost demokratické společnosti, ale i dnešní, nikdy v minulosti nevídaný blahobyt. Dramaticky popisuje 3 000 let evropských dějin, jež spojily zdánlivě neslučitelné: židovsko-křesťanskou existenciální víru s řeckou filosofií. V symbióze této víry a rozumu vyrostla nejúspěšnější civilizace, která dala světu vědu a techniku, dramatické umění a představu osobní svobody, lidské důstojnosti i občanských práv. Autor hájí řecký přirozený zákon telos, který z konečného účelu lidské přirozenosti vyvozuje, že člověk má pěstováním ctností směřovat k naplnění smyslu svého života, tedy k moudrosti a vznešenosti. Bez vyššího smyslu života se Západ zhroutí do chaosu iracionálních svárů, jak to vidíme dnes, kdy věcnou diskusi nahrazují vášně, subjektivita, etnická nebo menšinová identita a podobně. Paradoxně totiž i sám rozum závisí na víře – víře v racionální, poznatelný a objektivní svět, v němž rozpoznává Stvořitele.

America has a God-shaped hole in its heart, argues bestselling author Ben Shapiro, and we shouldn't fill it with politics and hate. In 2016, Shapiro spoke at UC Berkeley, requiring hundreds of police officers for protection as he addressed the necessity of free speech and rational debate. He contends that Western Civilization faces a crisis of purpose and ideas, rooted in the belief that every human is made in God’s image and possesses reason to explore the world. These values have fostered science, progress, human rights, prosperity, and artistic beauty. Jerusalem and Athens shaped America, ending slavery, defeating totalitarian regimes, and lifting billions from poverty while providing spiritual purpose. They underlie key historical documents like the Magna Carta and the Declaration of Independence. Civilizations that have rejected these foundations have crumbled. The USSR, for example, abandoned Judeo-Christian values for a utopian vision of “social justice,” leading to mass suffering. Similarly, the Nazis and Venezuela’s regime illustrate the dangers of discarding these principles. Shapiro warns that as we embrace moral subjectivism and individualistic hedonism, we risk our civilization's collapse into tribalism. He calls for a return to the moral purpose that unites us for the greater good, presenting a stark warning and a call to action for the future of our society.

Primetime Propaganda is the story of how television has been used over the past sixty years by Hollywood writers, producers, actors, and executives to promote their liberal ideals, to push the envelope on social and political issues, and to shape America in their own leftist image. In this thoroughly researched and detailed history of the television industry, the conservative columnist and bestselling author Ben Shapiro argues that left-leaning entertainment kingpins in Los Angeles and New York have leveraged—and continue to use—their positions and power to push liberal messages and to promote the Democratic Party while actively discriminating against their opponents on the right. According to Shapiro, television isn't just about entertainment—it's an attempt to convince Americans that the social, economic, and foreign policy shaped by leftism is morally righteous. But don't take his word for it. Shapiro interviewed more than one hundred of the industry's biggest players, including Larry Gelbart (M*A*S*H), Marta Kauffman (Friends), David Shore (House), and Mark Burnett (Survivor). Many of these insiders boast that not only is Hollywood biased against conservatives, but that many of the shows being broadcast have secret political messages. After reading this groundbreaking exposÉ, readers will never watch television the same way again.
