A guide for anyone who wants to revive the American dream while the woke mob tries to burn down the country. You don''t have to be a conspiracy theorist to see that something dark is happening in America. Just look around: Massive corporations monitor our every move. The Thought Police stand ready to cancel any who dare think for themselves. Brainwashed activists openly attack the American experiment. The dystopian future we''ve been warned of is here. Dave Rubin has been on the front lines of the culture wars for years. Now, he offers tactics you can use to protect yourself from today’s authoritarian rule—from resisting the grip of Big Tech to staying sane in a post-truth world. What’s more, he offers a vision for the next generation of patriots who will need to face the future head-on, holding fast to their values and creating a meaningful life no matter how frenzied and fabricated the news of the day is. In order for free-thinking people to thrive in this era of woke lunacy, we need to step up and create freedom for ourselves. While exposing Progressive lies and offering practical advice you can employ right now, this book is a call for Americans to live the freest life possible—and a roadmap for saving the greatest country in the history of the world.

¿Crees que la izquierda hoy es más reaccionaria que progresista? ¿Estás harto de que se ponga siempre el foco en los sentimientos y no en las ideas? ¿Temes que las políticas de identidad funcionen como un elemento censor, pero evitas decirlo en voz alta? En ese caso, vives aún en el armario político y ya es hora de que salgas de él. Dave Rubin, discípulo estrella de Jordan B. Peterson y presentador del exitoso programa The Rubin Report, se ha convertido en uno de los librepensadores de referencia para millones de personas en todo el mundo. Partiendo del ejemplo de su mismo viaje ideológico, Rubin explica cómo rebelarse contra el pensamiento único para reencontrarse a uno mismo como individuo. Nunca te rindas a la mafia progre; deja de odiarte por ser un hombre blanco; aprende a detectar las noticias falsas. En total, 10 consejos vitales que te ayudarán a encontrarte a ti mismo en la era de la sinrazón. «Rubin ha logrado dominar el arte de escuchar y hacerse las preguntas correctas» Eckhart Tolle «Oportuno, convincente. Ameno y, sobre todo, esperanzador» Jordan Peterson

"Topical, engaging, personable, and above all, reassuring." -Dr. Jordan B. Peterson, author of 12 Rules for Life From host of The Rubin Report, the most-watched talk show about free speech and big ideas on YouTube right now, a roadmap for free thinking in an increasingly censored world. The left is no longer liberal. Once on the side of free speech and tolerance, progressives now ban speakers from college campuses, "cancel" people who aren''t up to date on the latest genders, and force religious people to violate their conscience. They have abandoned the battle of ideas and have begun fighting a battle of feelings. This uncomfortable truth has turned moderates and true liberals into the politically homeless class. Dave Rubin launched his political talk show The Rubin Report in 2015 as a meeting ground for free thinkers who realize that partisan politics is a dead end. He hosts people he both agrees and disagrees with--including those who have been dismissed, deplatformed, and despised--taking on the most controversial issues of our day. As a result, he''s become a voice of reason in a time of madness. Now, Rubin gives you the tools you need to think for yourself in an age when tribal outrage is the only available alternative. Based on his own story as well as his experiences from the front lines of the free speech wars, this book will empower you to make up your own mind about what you believe on any issue and teach you the fine art of: Checking your facts, not your privilege, when it comes to today''s most pervasive myths, from the wage gap and gun violence to climate change and hate crimes. Standing up to the mob against today''s absurd PC culture, when differences of opinion can bring relationships, professional or personal, to a sudden end. Defending classically liberal principles such as individual rights and limited government, because freedom is impossible without them. The Progressive Woke Machine is waging war against the last free thinkers in the world. Don''t Burn This Book is the definitive account of our current political upheaval and your guide to surviving it.
