  • American Apocalypse - The Six Far-Right Groups Waging War on Democracy - cover

    American Apocalypse - The Six...

    The war on American democracy is at a fever pitch. Such a corrosive state of affairs did not arise spontaneously but instead was pushed, top-down, by six private sector special interest groups. In American Apocalypse Rena Steinzor argues that these groups are nothing more than well-financed armies fighting a battle of attrition against the national government. 
     
     
     
    The book begins at the end of Lyndon Johnson's presidency, when the modern regulatory state was born. Agencies like the Environmental Protection Agency and the Food and Drug Administration ensured that everything from our air to our medicine was safe. But efforts to thwart this "big government" agenda began swiftly. Business leaders built a multi-billion dollar presence in the Capitol, and the rest of the six interest groups followed. While the groups do not coordinate their attacks, their priorities fall within a tight bullseye. Over the long-term, as the prevalence of global pandemics and climate crises increase, an incapacitated national government will usher in unimaginable harm. 
     
     
     
    This book is the first to conceptualize these groups together, as one deconstructive, awe-inspiring force. Steinzor delves into their histories, mapping strategies, tactics, and characteristics that make them so powerful.  She offers a comprehensive story about the downfall of American democracy.

    Our planet is an extraordinary place, teeming with life and natural wonders. Yet, beneath the beauty and stability of our world lies an inherent fragility that we must never overlook. From the forces of nature to the actions of humanity, numerous threats exist that could drastically alter the course of life on Earth. These dangers range from natural disasters such as volcanic eruptions and asteroid impacts to man-made catastrophes like nuclear war and the consequences of climate change. While these events may seem distant or improbable, they are very real and have the potential to affect us all in profound ways. 
    To fully grasp the magnitude of these threats, it is crucial to understand how they arise and their potential consequences. Many of the dangers that could lead to the end of the world are rooted in forces that have shaped our planet for millions of years. However, modern society faces new, unique risks that previous generations never imagined. Natural disasters, though unpredictable, are part of the Earth's natural cycles, while human actions—whether through pollution, warfare, or technological mismanagement—have introduced entirely new categories of risk. As technology advances and our global interconnectedness grows, the potential for widespread disaster becomes more complex and difficult to anticipate. 
    When examining the ways the world could end, it is essential to distinguish between natural and man-made catastrophes. Natural disasters, like earthquakes, tsunamis, and pandemics, have been occurring throughout Earth's history, long before humans arrived on the scene. These events have shaped ecosystems, driven evolutionary processes, and, at times, caused mass extinctions. On the other hand, man-made catastrophes, such as nuclear warfare or the unchecked expansion of artificial intelligence, are unique to modern civilization.

    Harriet Tubman (March 10, 1822-- March tenth, 1913) was an abolitionist and political activist in the United States. Tubman, who was born into slavery, got away and went on to free around 70 enslaved people, which includes family members and good friends, through the Underground Rail Road, a network of antislavery activists and safe houses. She worked for the Union Army as an armed scout and spy throughout the American Civil War. Tubman was an activist in the women's suffrage movement in her last years. 
    Tubman was chained as a kid in Dorchester County, Maryland, and was maltreated and whipped by her different masters. She got a horrible head injury as a kid when an angered overseer tossed a very big metal weight at another shackled individual, but it struck her instead. Lightheadedness, pain, and hypersomnia were all signs of the damage, which she experienced for the remainder of her life. 
    Tubman started having odd visions and extreme bad nightmares after her injuries, which she credited to divine forewarnings. She ended up being earnestly spiritual because of these experiences, which she coupled with her Methodist childhood. 
    Slavery in those days was a serious issue. Harriet Tubman’s tragic but heroic story, in this historical context, is definitely worth studying.
