As to the book in question, we've been swallowing serious brainwashing crap about 'global government' for a hundred years now, and 'liberals' seem to think that's okay. America's being dismantled so it can be absorbed into a tyrannical global government, and that's okay. Sovereignty is bad. And as for individualism, well the American Psychiatric Assoc now says you're CRAZY if you have any independent traits. So someone wrote a book about separatism and self-reliance. So what? If you want a totalitarian big brother society, well, it's growing up all around you. Can't you even freaking READ about individualism in a piece of escapist writing? Let's just censor EVERYTHING that doesn't follow the communist line. And maybe lobotomize the writers too. I mean, what business do writers have speaking against the status quo? The is AMERICA dammit, and freedom of expression has GOT to be controlled.
