Cynical Theories: How Activist Scholarship Made Everything about Race, Gender, and Identity—and Why This Harms Everybody by Helen Pluckrose, James A. Lindsay
3.0
This book is a great introduction and history course in what has been happening in the field of cultural studies the last three decades or so. I don’t agree with the conclusions that this book makes, I do think the theories some of these movies do harm and need to be countered in “the market place of ideas.” The “liberals” these authors claim to be are more classical liberal (Dave Rubin style), but if you ignore their hatred of Marxism the analysis is still good.
