In my new book, "Fear Itself: Exposing the Left's Mind-Killing Agenda," I address the left's deliberate use of fear and manipulation to push the American people into retreat on issues of importance politically and culturally.
It's also an acknowledgment that left-wing bullies who fancy themselves social and political Masters of the Universe have weaponized fear in a sinister effort to control us.
They even demand we change how we speak and write language so they can change the way we think.... If they can keep you in an unthinking fear loop, they can stop you from questioning or confronting them about the damage they heap onto society.
There is one necessary component for the left's agenda to be successful-the annihilation of the ordinary person's personal courage-the trait required to withstand danger and fear.
It is this conjuring of ancient, mindless fear that tyrants have perfected through millennia, propelling us into actions and decision-making based on emotion, absent the mediators of logic and reason.
The goal of killing our minds, turning us into fear-driven automatons lacking confidence and courage, willing to bow and conform, is the putrid soup served up by the Marxists, tyrants, bullies, and bureaucracies, preferring that all of us stay out of their way.... The deliberate strategy of using fear as a weapon of control dates back to ancient times, but modern communications and other technological tools give the fearmongers power unimaginable in years past.
Marxists, bullies, and malignant narcissists occupying positions of power throughout our governmental and cultural infrastructure are using fear to distract, depress, isolate, and mentally disarm us.
Why? Because leftist ideology is a house of cards; the only way to maintain it is to either imprison their opposition, or, at the very least, imprison the minds of those who object.... For generations, we have all been targeted by the political and attendant cultural establishments to ensure that fear controls our minds.
In "Fear Itself," I discuss the malignant alliance between government, academia, and business and how Americans have endured vague designer threats, an endless array of verbal attacks, name-calling, bullying, arbitrary rules, regulations, and "Punishment" if we fail to obey and conform to the liberal orthodoxy.
The good news is, with voter movement toward Trump, Americans are beginning to say "Enough is enough," leading us to another opportunity to firmly reject the fear, abuse, and chaos to which the Democrats seem addicted.
