Beyond Woke by Michael Rectenwald EPUB

A few short years ago, Michael Rectenwald was a Marxist professor at NYU, pursuing his career and contemplating becoming a Trotskyist, when the political climate on campus – victimology, cancel-culture, no-platforming, and political correctness run-amok – began to bother him. He responded by creating a Twitter handle, @AntiPCNYUProf (now @TheAntiPCProf), and began bashing campus excesses with humor and biting satire. Predictably, he was soon discovered and pushed out of his job.

Rectenwald struck back by publishing Springtime for Snowflakes, a memoir of his experiences in academia, which included criticism and analyses of the leftism now dominating campus culture. He followed that book with Google Archipelago, which delves into the seeming enigma of why big business embraces far-left politics – hint: self-interest is involved – and the rapid growth of consumer/citizen surveillance. The foundation for a robust leftist totalitarianism is being carefully laid.

With this new volume, Rectenwald returns with his characteristic sharp wit and incisive analysis and continues to fine tune his critique of modern leftism. In Beyond Woke, he brings his unique perspective as an ex-Marxist and civil libertarian to bear on leftist culture, with its abandonment of traditional morality and emphasis on collective social identities -- which are ironically increasingly atomized, as overwhelming centrifugal forces break up any previously stable social cohesion. The revolution is here and it’s winning. Find out why, and how to combat it.

avatarAh yes, an opinion piece criticizing efforts to improve social justice, written by a man guilty of work-place physical and sexual harassment, sexism, bullying, drug abuse, and professional misconduct--in so much as he abused his position as chair of a university hiring committee. It's also worth noting that, when the author took legal action against colleagues that stated the above, his case was dismissed "with prejudice" (https://trellis[dot]law/doc/47926723/decision-order-on-motion).

I downloaded and read this, then spent much of my time laughing at the plainly biased and logically twisted perspectives of someone who fancies himself a 2024 Libertarian US presidential candidate. Thank you zakareya:_trusted_uploader::_sitefriend::_sitelover::_junkie::_sun:, your efforts are always appreciated, and this gives much-needed comic relief :_:-):_:-):_:-)

avatarEven the more traditional members of the far left are shocked by the societal-damage Wokeism is responsible for.

Thank-you for the book.
