Summary

Cindy Adams weaves together personal anecdotes and historical reflections to address a perceived decline in American patriotism and the rise of modern anti-Semitism. She contrasts the sacrificial courage of the founding fathers and their religious devotion with what she views as the moral complacency and intellectualized hatred found in contemporary society. Central to her argument is a sharp critique of elite academic institutions, where she believes complex jargon is used to mask ancient prejudices and radicalize a younger generation.
