Summary

In "The Uncomfortable Truth," young author Lee Maxwell delivers an unapologetic critique of today's most prominent social movements and the psychological phenomena affecting modern youth. Written from the perspective of a young person observing their generation, this provocative analysis challenges readers to question the foundations of progressive ideologies that have become mainstream in Western society.
 
Maxwell's two-part exploration begins with an examination of contemporary mental health challenges, including validation-seeking behavior, social media addiction, and the development of healthy self-esteem. The author suggests that many of today's psychological struggles stem from unrealistic expectations and a reluctance to accept personal responsibility.
 
The second part confronts controversial topics head-on, offering critical perspectives on movements like Black Lives Matter, pro-choice advocacy, and LGBT pride. Maxwell analyzes these movements through a traditional conservative lens, arguing that they often rely more on emotion than logic and may ultimately harm the people they claim to support.
 
Bold, contrarian, and deliberately provocative, "The Uncomfortable Truth" will challenge readers to reconsider their assumptions about modern social movements while examining the psychological foundations underlying them. This book isn't afraid to question widely accepted narratives and present alternative viewpoints in an increasingly polarized cultural landscape.
 
If you enjoyed "The Coddling of the American Mind," "Cynical Theories," and "The Madness of Crowds," you'll love "The Uncomfortable Truth."

    Liberalism Is a Mental Disorder- 
    Michael Savage has the cure. 
    With grit, guts, and gusto, talk radio sensation Michael Savage leaves no political turn unstoned as he savages today's most rabid liberalism. In this paperback edition of his third New York Times bestseller, Savage strikes at the root of today's most pressing issues, including: 
    Homeland security: "We need more Patton and less patent leather . . . Real homeland security begins when we arrest, interrogate, jail, or deport known operatives within our own borders . . . One dirty bomb can ruin your whole day." 
    Illegal immigration: "I envision an Oil for Illegals program . . . The president should demand one barrel of oil from Mexico for every illegal that sneaks into our country." 
    Lawsuit abuse: "Lawyers are like red wine. Everything in moderation. Today we have far too many lawyers, and we're suffering from cirrhosis of the economy." 
    "Pure Savage. Very effective, very timely, very hot." American Compass Book Club 
    An accompanying table and appendix are included in the audiobook companion PDF download.

    American Doom Loop - Dispatches...

    Americans lived in a different reality in 1980: Vermont was the only state that let residents carry a concealed firearm without a permit. Twenty-four states now allow this—and numerous other gun laws have fallen by the wayside. When police were accused of wrongdoing, the default answer from society's arbiters was: "The police wouldn't lie." Editors steered clear of stories about rape and sexual violence. The word "homeless" wasn't in common use. The fabric of the middle class had not yet begun fraying. 
     
     
     
    America of the 2020s is living with cultural shapeshifting rooted in the 1980s. American Doom Loop chronicles the first part of that moving picture, then brings the story forward. 
     
     
     
    As a newspaper journalist, Dale Maharidge had a front-row seat to this decade. He was in the Philippines during the last days of Dictator Ferdinand Marcos, witnessing the US lose a critical piece of its empire dating to the Spanish–American War; he embedded with a group that was a precursor to the Oath Keepers; and he investigated police, who kept trying to get him fired. 
     
     
     
    Through it all, Maharidge gained an invaluable view of a complicated decade that offers insight into our society today.

    Plato’s dialogues frequently treat several topics and show their connection to each other. The Phaedrus is a model of that skill because of its seamless progression from examples of speeches about the nature of love to mythical visions of human nature and destiny to the essence of beauty and, finally, to a penetrating discussion of speaking and writing. It ends with an examination of the love of wisdom as a dialectical activity in the human mind.
     
    Phaedrus lures Socrates outside the walls of Athens, where he seldom goes, by promising to share a new work by his friend and mentor Lysias, a famous writer of speeches. This dialogue provides a powerful example of the dialectical writing that Plato uses to manifest ideas that are essential to human existence and to living a good life. The Phaedrus shows how oral and written forms of language relate to each other and to philosophy. It simultaneously embodies the entire process in some of the greatest poetry ever written.
