The Rise of BlueAnon

How the Democrats Became a Party of Conspiracy Theorists

By: David Harsanyi

Narrated by: Charles Constant

David Harsanyi delves into the mindset of people who think Republicans would usher in the Handmaid's Tale and who compare Trump's Madison Square Garden rally to a pro-Nazi rally held there eight decades earlier.

In The Rise of BlueAnon, David Harsanyi reveals how the left has been consumed by a uniquely dangerous and delusional brand of conspiracy theories. And unlike those on the right, the Left’s conspiracy theories are rarely kept in check by mainstream institutions. How many Democrats are donning tinfoil hats? Way more than the media will admit:

· A recent poll found nearly twice as many Democrats as Republicans believed “the Holocaust is a myth.”

· Historically, Democrats are more likely to be 9/11 “Truthers.""

· Democrats have been accusing Republicans of stealing elections since Reagan defeated Carter.

· Despite their lawn signs declaring, “science is real,” Democrats are twice as likely to believe in astrology as Republicans.

· Most of the Americans who believe that alien spacecraft are observing our planet right now are Democrats.

· Democrats have spread the most successful conspiracy theory in American history: The Trump-Russia collusion hoax.

From shrieks that we’re just one election away from living in The Handmaid’s Tale, to shrills that the world will end in 12 years from a corporation-caused climate catastrophe, Democrats have whipped themselves up with unfounded fears and falsehoods.

Virtually all mainstream media experts, pundits, and late-night talk-show hosts claim that conservatives are a bunch of unhinged conspiracy theorists. The Rise of BlueAnon is a fun, hard-hitting, and insightful refutation of this myth, and it shows why so many Democrat accusations are, in reality, projections.

Outstanding compilation of leftist, conspiracy theories.

Lights the craziness which balance on the left. From environmental doomsday to racist, conspiracy theories, they’re all laid out in excruciating detail. A must read.

Excellent look in to projection from the Left.

This book brings the receipts on what we all know is present on the Left, Everything is projection, and the Right is criticized for what the Left is already doing.

A strange reality

The truth is, much of this book is legitimately sad. As someone who spent many years working in the media, it's uncanny how often people of a certain liberal persuasion truly do sound crazy as you begin to notice the level pf hysteria they will promote in the world of politics, in particular. Obviously this can happen on the right too, but the most unsettling part is how often it happens in the mainstream media that you will hear of rabid and nutty conspiracy theories coming from the far left. And as silly as so much of it sounds, it is often even accepted as fact. This is not a healthy paradigm in our news media. Without spending too much time breaking it apart, the fact is this: Once you hear the sheer amount of "on-the-record" statements and crazy beliefs that have been touted and believed over the last 10-15+ years in this book, your media consumption will hopefully be transformed--causing you to be much more discerning of what you believe in the future. This book is an eye-opening listen.

Inoculation against conspiracy theories

Blue anon makes many good points and I enjoyed its balanced analysis of news stories and headlines. However towards the end the author showed a great deal of pro corporate bias. Still it’s a worthwhile book that encourages critical thought.

Fine except for chapter 8

It's a conservative book, so there's the obligatory chapter defending Republicans' small-hatted friends from both lies and PROVEN realities. Otherwise, fine book.
