Book review by Charles Gardner —
For those with an identity crisis, and for others who fail to understand what all the fuss is about, a helpful guide has emerged.
In a sequel to Now Everything Changes, Steve Maltz moves on from explaining the huge spike in antisemitism signaled by flying the flag for Palestine.
In Who Am I? (SP Publishing), the author takes us on a roller-coaster exploration through the bewildering maze of wokery (i.e. political correctness) that is bedeviling our world.
Subtitled An ordinary woman searches for her identity in a world gone mad, we join in the further adventures of Dawn and Derek, whose original journey began on a mountain top in a remote part of the Lake District where they were both bedazzled by the strange site of a Palestinian flag.
I urge you to get a copy (and I’m not on commission) because it’s very funny, though obviously also tragic. In this sequel, the dialogue between this contented married couple will keep you chuckling as you eventually discover (with them) the sinister roots of all this madness – a New Ager called Alice Bailey and a Frankfurt School of academics who between them devised something now loosely termed Cultural Marxism.
Their purpose was to get us all thinking and acting like programmed robots where no-one is allowed to fall out of step, presumably meant to pave the way for a unified happy society where there is no conflict. Basically, you only do or say what your masters allow. Sounds like communism, which got such a bad name in the West.
The crazy part about it, as Steve points out, is that Cultural Marxism can’t be found on Wikipedia; you have to look for Cultural Marxism Conspiracy. For the left-wing establishment would like you to think it’s only a conspiracy rather than a reality.
If so, where did all the politically correct nonsense come from? Where you can’t call a spade a spade, you are forced to seal your lips in case you offend someone and where every minority group is a victim except Christians and Jews?
This book is a real eye-opener, and it’s time we all woke up to the creeping paralysis of our free society.
It’s interesting that Steve harks back to one of my all-time favorite films – It’s a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World – a 1960s adventure involving car chases in California with some of the funniest stars ever including the inimitable Phil Silvers. But that was just crazy fun. Now it’s a reality.
Hats off to ‘Podcast Steve’ (as he is referred to by Derek and Dawn) for tackling such a serious issue with a generous splash of humor. But the message is very serious, such as Alice Bailey’s ten-point plan of 1948 which included removing God from education, destroying the traditional Judeo-Christian family structure, along with legalizing abortion, homosexuality and easy divorce.
And we all fell for it! Isn’t it time to fight back and help restore what has been lost? Buy the book and start your journey.
