America's worst ideas and people are rising to the top, thanks to a rancid culture between the so-called "privilege" and the entitled brats claiming "victim" status. The country is under siege and America's most ferocious enemy is here: our privileged victims....Driven by "social justice" and governed by "intersectionality," out-of-control college students, school administrators, journalists, and titans of the entertainment industry divide and rank us on an infinite scale of grievance. This book exposes the lies and myths behind: the #MeToo movement that redefined sexual assault and rape to include simple regret; hoax hate crimes, a key feature of the privileged victim class; the debate over our jungle-like immigration system, dumbed down by a scheming national news media to ugly charges of racism and xenophobia; Hollywood, which no longer aims to produce high-quality entertainment, but to virtue signal and promote "social justice"; and so much more. Scarry uncovers the perversion behind social justice and its identity-first dogma, tracing its origins in academia and shining a light on the havoc it has wrought over three decades. Bewildered citizens mistakenly believe that it's a matter of political correctness gone too far or the ailing symptoms of a country that has grown too sensitive. The truth is much worse: it's a deliberate, malignant reorganization of American life and the replacement of merit with mediocrity is the ultimate destination.
