The Madness Of Crowds (Douglas Murray) - Book Review

Can you actually reason with madness? 'The Madness Of Crowds' by Douglas Murray is an extension of his own fight in the cultural wars as a journalist and political commentator. The book is split into 4 parts each of about 50-60 pages long on Gay/Women/Race/Trans. It highlights the modern absurdities of far left thinking, the historical treatment of minority groups and the implications of getting this all wrong.I summarised the book as follows. "It is smoothly written considering the density of topics and does not feel like a bludgeoning of information/stories. The shocking absurdities are told in a humorous style and is a superb analysis of the current times. It's a book of idea landmines and Douglas is running through full pelt with clown shoes on. A brave soul indeed!"As always, we hope you enjoy, Mere Mortals out!Timeline:(0:00) - Synopsis(2:56) - Madness: Extremely foolish behaviour/state of wild, chaotic activity(6:21) - The Cultural War: Choose your battles wisely(9:49) - Personal Observations(15:47) - Summary(16:58) - Pragmatic Takeaway: Read 'Conundrum' by Jan MorrisConnect with Mere Mortals:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/meremortalspodcast/Support the show
