Good material ruined by the author's own bias

Revisado: 09-30-24

This book was barely readable. Mostly it was ruined by the author's TDS, liberal bias and lack of self awareness. The author critques argument from authority, but then in parts of the book relies on that technique.

Oh and nothing ruins your 'crazy conspiracy people are just so dumb' book as citing conspiracy theories that turned out to be true. Best to pick examples of things that have been around long enough to be confident that all relevant evidence is out there. Also the author trashes their reputation by claiming 'fact checkers" are some independent impartial truth seekers.

If you want to read this author, get one of his other books. Besides, there was nothing substantial and new in this book that's not in the author's other books.

Not the author's best work

Revisado: 08-02-24

This book was horrible! it was nothing more than an aimless meandering through trivia that I believe was meant to be case studies but precisely what they revealed about the author's thesis was never clear. The book was also ruined by the author's TDS, complete with Russia Russia Russia and social media being presented as both good and bad. The peak TDS was how Clinton breaking the law with her private server hurting her in the election was somehow malice on Trump's part.

Pure Rambling

Revisado: 11-12-22

It's really just a bunch of trivia that completely obscures the authors theory. Really it seems like a theory that could have been explained in an article but a bunch of useless trivia is used as filler to fake it into a book.

well that turned out wrong

Revisado: 11-07-22

The book couldn't have got the baby boomers and millennials more wrong post 1990s. The main theory fails to take into account external influence on a country. and as for evidence of the theory, it would have been more convincing if they provided evidence of similar patterns in any other country's history.

Sounds like...

Very annoying mispronunciations from reader, which are weird and deliberate from an English speaker with an otherwise good tone and pace.

Another good book by this author

Revisado: 12-19-21

A good author, with a well researched book. Unfortunately the subject matter is horrifying - how the COVID tragedy was made far far worse by ideology, fame seeking, and greed.

Necessary read

Revisado: 11-21-21

In exploring the response to the virus, this book further exposes the extent of CCP influence around the world and how the CCP are not the only ones with a vested interest in covering up the origins of the virus.

Starts out good, goes of the rails in the 2010s

Revisado: 07-22-21

The book is rather good up until the early 2010s. The author discredits herself jumping on the Trump Russia collusion band wagon even while admitting that the sanctions Trump imposed had heavy consequences for the Russian elite. No mention at all of Barrack Obama asking Putin for space during his second election or Hillary Clinton signing off on the sale of US uranium interests to Russian owned front company. Most laughably, Biden is made out as some type of anti-corruption VP. The detailed parts of the book are the transfer of power from the Yeltsin family to Putin and other former KGB.

Very useful

Probably the best audiobook I have heard on social anxiety. Very useful tools and background for those who want to do something about thier social anxiety. Pleasant presentation.

A nice surprise

Revisado: 12-13-20

I had thought this would be a short dry detailed book on a limited topic. I was wrong. It is a full length very informative book with a professional narrator and interesting presentation. A great listen.
