In 1980, US capitalist politics wore a "nice-guy mask", a troubling disguise to cover up a creeping despotism in which the ultra-rich and corporate overseers were merging with a centralized state power in order to manage the populace. This immanent corporate authoritarianism threatened to subvert constitutional democracy.

Left wing pablum
Revisado: 09-15-21
Was hopeful for the book. Unfortunately he ‘the prescient’ author was only prescient in terms of the propaganda on full display these days, but not it’s source - leftists. It is interesting how fascism is the new I don’t like you word. While the absolute definition is rooted in communism. Something this author I’m sure would disagree with. ‘Climate deniers are corporate shills’. He has his bias. And while the concept is interesting. He misses the mark. All of his left wing causes are being promoted by and in fascistic ways today. And the freedom of speech he treasures is assuredly only if you agree with him. Again he misses the mark. Cancel culture is the calling card of the left today. Disagree. Be destroyed. So while conceptually right. He is fundamentally wrong in that he attributes all of these to right leaning forces when in fact they are ALL left leaning forces. Ironically he is the propagandist here.

The Politically Incorrect Guide to Catholicism refutes misrepresentations and misconceptions about the Catholic Church and separates rumor from truth when it comes to Catholic traditions, faith, and controversial leaders.

Of all things Catholic, there is nothing that is so familiar as the Mass. With its unchanging prayers, the Mass fits Catholics like their favorite clothes. Yet most Catholics sitting in the pews on Sundays fail to see the powerful supernatural drama that enfolds them. Pope John Paul II described the Mass as "Heaven on Earth," explaining that what "we celebrate on Earth is a mysterious participation in the heavenly liturgy."

Forever altered my understanding of the Mass in a most holy way. I have encountered another person who also had the same experience. Truly eye opening about Mass and the Book of Revelations. This book and it's ideas which I have come to understand are not even remotely fringe but are fundamental to Catholicism, but for some reason are not commonly discussed. More than a must read - an eye opener.
