Never Mind the B*llocks - Simon Davies - Bog

Remember when punk rock, dyed hair, and ripped jeans were a middle finger in the face of authority? How did the youth of the nation go from 'F*ck you, I won't do what you tell me' to mindless conformity, parroting the same misery-inducing views as mainstream media, universities, corporations, and Hollywood?
Never Mind The Bollocks cracks open the black box on 'Woke Modern Wisdom.' From microaggressions to gender pronouns, privilege to patriarchy, safe spaces, trigger warnings, cultural appropriation and more, Never Mind The Bollocks is the remedy to the destructive, prevailing wisdom that teaches our generation anger, hatred, fear, and the entitlement of weaponised victimhood. But how did we get here? And why is absolutely everything considered racist, sexist, or somehow 'phobic' these days? Where did confusing buzzwords like 'intersectionality' and 'lived experiences' come from? And why the hell are we supposed to care? And did I miss the part where we all agreed that our identities are the single most important thing on earth and must be to others, too? In the Age of Unreason, if you find yourself feeling like you're the only one sober in a car full of drunk people and nobody is letting you drive, then this book is just for you. In this book, we will get to the bottom of what it means to be woke and how the philosophy of modern wisdom is setting our generation up for an almighty fall. We will explore how our clunky monkey hindbrains are working against us and how much of the thinking that we are told is progressive, stunning, and brave mirrors the destructive, self-defeating beliefs that are best left in the therapist's office. At a time when thinking for yourself, daring to disagree, or asking a simple question can get you cancelled, understanding what you're up against has never been more important. With this in mind, welcome to Never Mind the Bollocks - your personal guide to thinking freely and unscrambling all of the B.S. that is bound to make us miserable.
