Facts Don't Care about Your Feelings

It says a lot of things we already know. Also, a little too far right unless thats your thing. It's also a bunch of short stories so you know. I gave it the benefit of doubt with the 4 stars. Should be 3.5

Am going to display my ignorance right at the beginning of this review. This author's name was familiar to me but I had never read any of his books or columns. I bought this so I could read through his columns dated from 2016 to 2019. And, so glad that I did...The book covers diverse topics including this past Presidential election (and the campaign), as well as the Presidency. I was particularly interested in the portions on the media and the First Amendment.Have put this author on 'follow' so I won't miss the next one he writes.Thought provoking and insightful...excellent read for me.Most highly recommended.

I mean it’s my boy Big Ben ! Need I say more?

I actually got this for a friend because the title rings true to who he is and what he stand for. I haven’t personally read it yet, but he loves it

Another great book by Ben Shapiro excellent reading

Very useful, accurate information. Speaks the truth.

so, i ordered this book and yet to find where the heck its at. can someone tell me where i find the book at? is it on the app or do i download it.. this is why i love to hold stuff. so, i will be able to clearly find it.im sure ill like the book, once i read it. i love shapiro, he's funny, quirky and flat out uses common sense. he makes some ppl look foolish with there reasoning..

Shapiro writes intelligently about some very tough current issues. He is super smart, writes well, and is very tough on his political opponents. The book is a collection of his columns from 2017 to early 2019. It barely dips into the 2020 campaign, he does touch on it. This is a worthy read that will leave political wonks wanting more, much more.

not his best stuff but entertaining nonetheless

Ben Shapiro is a prolific writer on the American political and social scene. I’d better admit then that this is the first of his books that I have encountered. Indeed, it is not even a book in the normal sense, but rather a collection of newspaper articles.It is fascinating for a UK reader to be drawn so deeply into the cut and thrust of the American political world. Many of these issues have risen to the surface here, not least the limitations on free speech. Very soon it is clear where Shapiro stands on the key issues he discusses. He is strongly anti-democrat, anti-United Nations, anti-abortion, anti-Medicare for all, and pro-Israel for example. Behind all is his belief that America was built on the foundation of free speech, freedom from violence and from governmental tyranny, or at least that is what Shapiro claims.Short newspaper articles make for simplification and make their points in large point bold. There is much that calls for clarification in these pieces and much that might be taken issue with. No doubt Shapiro explores these issues more deeply in his other publications. It is significant that he starts with an attack on Antifa. It is not just that this pro Muslim group are a danger in themselves, but that underlying all is the view tenaciously held on the left that violence is justified against extreme right-wing organisations but forbidden against equally violent protests from the left. Here, Shapiro can speak from direct personal experience.A feature of political correctness – a term that Shapiro largely avoids – is victimisation, which has taken as strong a hold here in Britain as in America. Shapiro briefly makes a strong case for acquiring resilience in the face of bullying rather than refuge in what here has become known as the nanny state. Elsewhere this argument is extended to include the dreaded hate speech and hate crime, where the motive behind the deed is often whatever the victim claims it to be, involving extraordinarily dangerous legislation.Equally important, it seems to me, is the anti-biological programme that serves an underlying political agenda. Shapiro exposes the dangers and logical fallacies of transgenderism, which of course leads on to education and the inculcation of young children with LGBT propaganda. Here, Shapiro crosses the water to point to how in Rotherham, Oxford, Newcastle and Rochdale in particular, little was done to prevent the horrendous abuse of children, for fear of affronting Muslim communities. Shapiro never speaks more truly than when he points to how multi culturalism sees tolerance as a trojan horse. The most sinister aspect of political correctness is the slogan:’ Speech is violence’. The American constitution enshrines free speech to a significant degree. Sadly, we have no such bulwark here.

Trump 2020. Elections rigged big time. Excellence truths.

I was expecting something meatier and more sustained than a collection of page to page-and-a-half opinion pieces on current events. More like a journal than anything.

Read this if you want to educate yourself on how to deal with this ridiculous culture.
