Story4.5 out of 5 stars 18
Serving as a powerful follow-up to Jordan Peterson’s book 12 Rules for Life, Dr. Gad Saad unpacks what is really happening in progressive safe zones, why we need to be paying more attention to these trends, and what we must do to stop the spread of dangerous thinking. A professor at Concordia University who has witnessed this troubling epidemic firsthand, Dr. Saad dissects a multitude of these concerning forces (corrupt thought patterns, belief systems, attitudes, etc.) that have given rise to a stifling political correctness in our society.

This book has taught me that judging is okay if the reason and process is correct. World is filled with people displaying Ostrich Parasitic Syndrome, victim hood, and postmodernism. We need to step up and oppose such delusional ideologies instead of caving in social pressure. I didn’t agree with all the examples and explanations in the book, but as Gad rightly mentioned that intellectual diversity is important and we must constantly strive for the truth.
