This. Is an important little book. I basically livetweeted it as I was reading it because I genuinely feel like this is a book that everyone should read, especially right now. It clearly and concisely states so many things about all the frightful and absurd things going on in politics and the media right now, and it gave me a little peace of mind to see that someone else had taken the time and done the research to compare the world today to the world of the 1940s, and to say what we can and should be doing about it using logic and reason. 
 Read this. It'll take you an hour. Less. And you will be so much the better for it.
