After over 175 years, the feminist movement, now in its fourth wave, is at risk of collapsing on its eroding foundation. In Faux Feminism, political philosopher Serene Khader advocates for another feminism—one that doesn’t overwhelmingly serve white, affluent #girlbosses. With empathy, passion, and wit, Khader invites the listener to join her as she excavates the movement’s history and draws a blueprint for a more inclusive and resilient future.

Cable news TV anchor Bianca De La Garza reports the news every day, twice a day. She’s a journalist and a commentator, a conservative, a Christian, and a mom. The news is ugly, frightening, violent, insane, and relentless. Those in power are corrupt. The corporate media is corrupt. Corporate America is corrupt. Every day there is reason to despair. Yet every day there is also reason to hope. As Bianca reports daily and writes in this book, the foundation of America is stronger than the evil that attacks her every day. Conservative Americans must face this evil head on, and not back down.

Crítica a la ostentación moral del legislador que concibe la sociedad como un parvulario Este libro parte de la constatación de que la ley se ha pervertido de manera flagrante y demasiado frecuente.

Auch Sie sind schon mit russischer Propaganda in Kontakt gekommen.

Die offenen Gesellschaften des Westens sind bedroht, durch autoritäre, äußere Gegner, aber auch durch rechte, linke und religiöse Fundamentalisten im Inneren. Jahrzehntelang hat man radikale Minderheiten unterschätzt, durch Migration ins Land gelassen, teilweise mit einem Mulikulti-Mäntelchen kaschiert. Aber sie tolerieren nicht, wodurch sie groß geworden sind: Meinungsfreiheit und Gleichheit Aller. Identitäre von rechts und von links vergiften das öffentliche Klima, Antisemiten und Staatsfeinde haben die Masken abgeworfen.

En el actual panorama político convulso, el libro nos recuerda que la responsabilidad política nos pertenece a todos. La democracia es algo vivo, que respira, y Erica Benner ha pasado toda una vida pensando en el papel que juegan los ciudadanos comunes para mantenerla viva: desde su infancia en el Japón de la posguerra, donde la democracia fue impuesta en un país vencido, hasta trabajar en la Polonia postcomunista, con sus repentinas brechas de riqueza y seguridad.

This book is about the abuse of words to attack someone’s character and delegitimize their opinion or ideas. It’s about how narcissistic people control and manipulate everyone around them, even the citizens of an entire nation. Just whisper a phrase from a long list of so-called conspiracy theories, and watch how the vast majority of Americans within earshot are triggered and immediately attack your character. They typically refuse to humbly and intelligently discuss the facts, and they aggressively come at you with the passion of someone whose most sacred beliefs have been assaulted. ...

Für seine witzigen Krimis musste er 2022 ins Gefängnis, Autorenlesungen wurden verboten.

Desde junho de 2013, com as famosas manifestações de rua, passando pelos escândalos de corrupção revelados pela Operação Lava Jato, o impeachment da presidente Dilma Rousseff e a eleição do presidente Jair Bolsonaro, o grau de polarização na igreja e na sociedade só fez aumentar. Amizades antes duradouras e relações familiares outrora consistentes abalaram-se e parecem longe de voltar à normalidade.
