We've got issues: how you can stand strong for America's soul and sanity

Foreword: a letter from Dr. Phil

Introduction: we've got issues

The price and consequences of disruption

Think freely, speak freely

"Inclusive language" isn't inclusive, and it's barely language

It's the 2020s, but we're living in 1984

The dangers of rewriting

Deprogram yourself, because the truth is out there

We're doing our enemies' work for them

Programmed by algorithm (you're angry, they profit)

Censored by the algorithm

Avoid logical fallacies: presentism, confirmation bias, and positive bias

Are you open to changing your mind?

The dangerous temptation of victimhood

Sociograms and collective personality

The family is under attack

What are you modeling?

The dangerous erosion of faith

Science is under attack
