How to Destroy America in Three Easy Steps

Více o knize

#1 New York Times bestselling author Ben Shapiro explores the Left's attack on history, language, and culture. Traditional civic agreements are fading, leading to a lack of consensus on what makes America special, or even what "America" means. "Disintegrationists" argue for unity, yet their assault on the nation’s history and values threatens to divide us further. They include figures like Howard Zinn and the New York Times' 1619 Project, who interpret American history through a lens of oppression and corruption. This perspective dismisses American philosophy as a façade, claiming it merely upholds existing power structures rather than protecting individual freedoms. Disintegrationists undermine key values such as free speech, self-defense, and the importance of marriage and faith, replacing them with increased government reliance. This vision contrasts sharply with the "unionist" belief that all Americans strive toward universal ideals. Shapiro asserts that to maintain our cohesion as a nation, we must uphold foundational truths about our identity and history. He warns that without recovering these shared truths, the future of our union as a great country is at risk.
