About this ebook

In this galvanizing and alarming New York Times bestseller, “Ben Shapiro shows once and for all that the left is the single greatest source of bullying in modern American life” (Sean Hannity).

While President Obama and the left like to pretend that they oppose bullying with all their hearts and souls, the truth is far darker: the left is the greatest purveyor of bullying in modern American history. Bullying has morphed into the left’s go-to tactic, as they attempt to quash their opponents through fear, threat of force, violence, and rhetorical intimidation on every major issue facing America today.

In Bullies, Ben Shapiro uncovers the simple strategy used by liberals and their friends in the media: bully the living hell out of conservatives. Play the race card, the class card, the sexism card. Use any and every means at your disposal to demonize your opposition—to shut them up. Then pretend that such bullying is justified, because, after all, conservatives are the true bullies, and need to be taught a lesson for their intolerance. Hidden beneath the left’s supposed hatred of bullying lies a passionate love of its vulgar tactics.

Dubbed by Glenn Beck “a warrior for conservatism, against those who use fear and intimidation to stifle honest debate­­,” Shapiro takes on the leftist bullies—the most despicable people in America. By exposing their hypocrisy, he offers conservatives a reality check in the face of what has become the gravest threat to American liberty: the left’s single-minded focus on ending political debate through bully tactics.

An den Haaren herbei gezogener Müll von einem Menschen, der weder Kritik zulassen, noch Verantwortung übernehmen kann, weder für eigene Fehlbarkeit, noch Vorurteile, der einfach nur eingefahren ist in seinem Denken. Als Resultat dessen sieht Shapiro in allem eine große Verschwörung - natürlich, es muss ja so sein, dass es eine gibt, es ist schließlich unmöglich, dass er einfach ein von Hass, Vorurteilen, Intoleranz, Borniertheit und Unreflektiertheit zerfressener Typ ist. Es muss eine große Verschwörung geben. Alles andere würde ja bedeuten, dass es okay ist, dass die Welt sich verändert und offener wird. Shapiro ist einer der Leute, die angepisst sind, weil die Welt ihm nicht allein dient. Die Kritik gegen die s.g. "Linken", die nach europäischen Standards maximal liberal, nicht links eingestuft würden, ist eine, die er u seine Konsorten sich selbst vorhalten müssten. Aber das wäre ja unbequem. Und außerdem lässt sich mit einer Verschwörung die man angebl aufdeckt mehr Kohle machen.

Whilst I don't agree with some things in this book (because I am actually a Feminist in support of Abortion), I still love it because it's so important and exposes how the Government is using vulnerable children and people at every chance they get to forward their own perverse political propaganda - "Bullying" is being used as a weapon. This book exposes who the REAL BULLIES are and which the real victims are. A real gem. Cannot praise highly enough.

This read like one of those deranged American Pentecostal TV Preachers and made about as much sense. There must be some kind of right-wing factory that churns out cookie cutter versions of them all because this guy has precisely the same rhetoric and the same angle as every other right wing fundamentalist with a platform (or youtube channel) with his one dimensional ideologies dripping in megalomania and void of any rationality. No mind. I'll use it to prop up my wobbly table.
