Destroying Democracy-The Politics of Propaganda An Average American’s Warning Against Propaganda, Corruption, and the Erosion of Freedom. America is at a crossroads! This non-fiction book is more Informational & Educational . Much less on the “Political” side. It is about facts, truth and eliminating the political propaganda destroying our families, friendships, company’s and Destroying our Democracy! Our nation was founded on timeless principles of liberty, equality, and truth, yet those very foundations are under siege. Destroying Democracy is a wake-up call written from the perspective of a proud, everyday American who refuses to stand by while lies, manipulation, and corruption threaten to undo everything generations before us fought to preserve. Drawing on a lifetime of experience in economics, business, and critical study of history and science, Joseph T. Issacsson III reveals how propaganda has been used — both past and present — to reshape our politics, mislead citizens, and weaken democracy itself. With clarity and conviction, he explains that economics works just like physics: the rules are simple, the outcomes predictable, and the truth undeniable. Yet propaganda, spin, and half-truths blind the public to what is really happening. This book challenges readers to look beyond slogans and political theater, and instead focus on facts, logic, and common sense. It connects the dots between: Runaway government spending and debt that burdens future generations. - Partisan manipulation of institutions like the Supreme Court, elections, and education. - Media-driven propaganda that divides Americans and stifles independent thought. - Special interests, NGOs, and government waste siphoning billions while taxpayers foot the bill. - Energy, industry, and technology policies that disguise cronyism and incompetence as “progress.” Issacsson’s voice is unapologetic, passionate, and rooted in deep concern for the survival of the American republic. He warns that propaganda is not just a nuisance — it is a weapon. From misleading narratives about economics to the rewriting of history and the demonization of dissent, propaganda is designed to silence opposition, consolidate power, and keep the average citizen uninformed. But the book is not just about exposing the problem — it’s also about empowering readers with solutions. Issacsson insists that saving democracy begins with everyday people refusing to be “useful idiots” of propaganda. He urges Americans to reclaim their role as active, informed participants in democracy: questioning the narratives they are fed, doing their own research, and standing up for truth even when it is unpopular. Through examples ranging from federal mismanagement of Social Security, to misguided energy projects, to the manipulation of Supreme Court debates, Issacsson highlights the common thread: when truth is obscured, democracy suffers. When truth is defended, freedom thrives. The chapter on Social Security should be an eye opener to everyone! Destroying Democracy is more than a book. It is a call to arms — not with weapons, but with knowledge, vigilance, and courage. It is a reminder that America’s future does not depend solely on politicians, but on its citizens. The question at the heart of the book is stark: Will we let propaganda destroy democracy, or will we expose lies and save it? For readers tired of media spin, partisan games, and political doublespeak, this book offers a refreshing, plainspoken perspective. It is written not for elites, but for the everyday American who loves this country, values truth, and refuses to be fooled. United we stand. Divided we fall. The choice is ours.
