How to Destroy America in Three Easy Steps

A NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER!A growing number of Americans want to tear down what its taken us 250 years to buildand theyll start by canceling our shared history, ideals, and culture.Traditional areas of civic agreement are vanishing. We cant agree on what makes America special. We cant even agree that America is special. Were coming to the point that we cant even agree what the word America itself means. Disintegrationists say were stronger together, but their assault on Americas history, philosophy, and culture will only tear us apart.Who are the disintegrationists? From Howard Zinns A Peoples History of the United States to the New York Times 1619 project, many modern analyses view American history through the lens of competing oppressions, a racist and corrupt experiment from the very beginning. They see American philosophy as a lie beautiful words pasted over a thoroughly rotted system. They see Americas culture of rights as a faade that merely reinforces traditional hierarchies of power, instead of being the only culture that guarantees freedom for individuals.Disintegrationist attacks on the values that built our nation are insidious because they replace each foundational belief, from the rights to free speech and selfdefense to the importance of marriage and faith communities, with nothing more than an increased reliance on the government.This twisted disintegrationist vision replaces the traditional unionist understanding that all Americans are united in a shared striving toward the perfection of universal ideals.How to Destroy America in Three Easy Steps shows that to be a cohesive nation we have to uphold foundational truths about ourselves, our history, and reality itselfto be unionists instead of disintegrationists. Shapiro offers a vital warning that if we dont recover these shared truths, our futureour unionas a great country is threatened with destruction.
