Brain Worms: How Right-Wing Propaganda Destroys Reason, Conscience, and Democracy

By Adam Glenn

The American Right is running humanity off a cliff. Climate change is accelerating, threatening to destroy the planet. Social and economic inequality continue to worsen, preventing millions of people from living up to their potential. We're lucky we haven't blown ourselves up yet in a nuclear war-the possibility of which is now greater than ever. Our political institutions are becoming brittle, preventing us from governing ourselves in accordance with our goals. These problems persist despite readily-available solutions. Why? Because the Right has driven half the country insane. They've spent decades inundating us with propaganda, destroying much of our capacity to consider, let alone implement solutions to society's most urgent problems. Brain Worms sheds light on how elites and their supporters-particularly on the Right-trick people into accepting ideas that run contrary to society's interests, and exposes the ideological barriers we need to overcome if we hope to make the world livable for future generations, and in the meantime bring about meaningful improvements to peoples' lives.
