A book by Dinesh D'Souza that is a master class in using rhetoric to slip things past the Chattering Class.
It was the inspiration for this wiki. I'm fond of the Origin Story Podcast. In their episode "Woke: The word that splits the world
", one of the hosts says:
> Considering that Dinesh D’Souza is now a lunatic, the book itself [is] not anywhere near as wild as you would think. [He and Roger Kimball, author of *Tenured Radicals*] were trying to sound quite sensible at that point, like: ‘We’re sensible people, and look at these crazy students and professors filling [their] heads with nonsense.’ "

about the book, situating it in the context of the history of "political correctness."
