Yes, it's great to nail these Freire/Marcuse types for their Machiavellian poisoning of the West. But what made them so SUCCESSFUL in wokefying our Western culture? That's the bit that's missing here....and needs to not be shied away from if we are going to get at the real truth of things. What made them so successful is that so many people (especially the 'higher educated') are so intellectually biddable. Take another context: it is an almost universal conceit that the horrors of The Cultural Revolution were all about Mao and his gang. The truth is much darker. Mao would have been nothing without tens of millions of biddable, favour-seeking, grudge-bearing followers.

Thanks again for your work Christopher! Just purchased the audible version and looking forward to it, albeit with mixed feelings. As an older person this takeover has made me incredibly sad, disoriented and worried for my children and grandchildren. The work Christopher and others are doing is so important in pushing back against the unreality and anti-humanity of these destructive ideas. I hope it’s not too late.
