The culture wars are at the heart of American politics, and they are tearing the country apart. Wokeness is at the center of this debate. This book delves into how social justice fanaticism, or Wokeness, festers in universities and then spreads throughout society. It covers topics like diversity training, microaggressions, control of language, affirmative action, obsessions around race and gender, campus uprisings, and the chilling effect these ideas have on freedom of speech. The Left has used the term "cultural hegemony" to describe how the Right has control over America's institutions, but the reality is quite the opposite. Academia, corporate America, Hollywood, and much of the media are in the hands of a nefarious ideology that exists to give social capital to the elites so that they can look down on the masses. This is the fourth book in the social justice fanaticism series, after Problematic, which focuses on the psychology of Wokeness, Building Insanity, which focuses on Woke philosophical theory, and Burn it all to the Ground, which focuses on the destruction caused when these ideas are put into practice. The Ivory Tower of Madness is essential reading for anyone going to college or who wants to gain an understanding of how the ideas coming out of universities have shaped the broader culture.
