This book talks about things that you won't find on television or read about in most mainstream magazines. Western civilization is and has been under siege, for some decades now. Political Correctness is our Moloch straight-jacket, that we must all kow-tow before, if we want to avoid allegations of racism, sexism, homophobia or climate denial. Who invented Political Correctness and what is it exactly? Why has Hollywood refrained from making blockbusters about the events leading up to the collapse of Communism, twenty-five years after the fact? This is a personal view about the cultural conflict, that we find ourselves in, and the outcome of which will shape the future of our society.
