Publisher's Summary

When parents send their children off to college, Mom and Dad hope they'll return more cultivated, knowledgeable, and astute - able to see issues from all points of view. But, according to Ben Shapiro, there's only one view allowed on most college campuses: a rabid brand of liberalism that must be swallowed hook, line, and sinker.

In this explosive exposé, Ben Shapiro, a UCLA graduate, reveals how America's university system is one of the largest brainwashing machines on the planet. Examining this nationwide problem from firsthand experience, Shapiro shows how the leftists who dominate the universities - from the administration to the student government, from the professors to the student media - use their power to mold impressionable minds.

Fresh and bitterly funny, this book proves that the universities, far from being a place for open discussion, are really dungeons of the mind that indoctrinate students to become socialists, atheists, race baiters, and narcissists.

I wish my car could run off of the gaslighting in this book

Tried to listen to this but the gaslighting is unreal, at least they are very upfront with this and make it undeniably clear that this will not be an honest discussion.

I try to listen to a wide variety of view points because, like this author, many are just trying to push what ever narrative financially benefits them.

It is one thing to only present facts that support your side, it is another to twist facts, but this book just blows right by that and just flat out lies and gaslights you claiming the other side is lying on easily verifiable facts betting on you being ignorant or too lazy to fact check.

And for the record people become more conservative as they acquire wealth, not because they have gotten older, it is just that these two factors go hand in hand. Now that we have created a world where the vast majority of those not born into wealth will never be able to achieve it this is why less people support a system the only be if it’s the wealthy.
