Summary
A New York Times best seller!
A growing number of Americans want to tear down what it’s taken us 250 years to build - and they’ll start by canceling our shared history, ideals, and culture.
Traditional areas of civic agreement are vanishing. We can’t agree on what makes America special. We can’t even agree that America is special. We’re coming to the point that we can’t even agree what the word America itself means.
“Disintegrationists” say we’re stronger together, but their assault on America’s history, philosophy, and culture will only tear us apart. Who are the disintegrationists? From Howard Zinn’s A People’s History of the United States to the New York Times’ 1619 Project, many modern analyses view American history through the lens of competing oppressions, a racist and corrupt experiment from the very beginning. They see American philosophy as a lie - beautiful words pasted over a thoroughly rotted system. They see America’s culture of rights as a façade that merely reinforces traditional hierarchies of power, instead of being the only culture that guarantees freedom for individuals.
Disintegrationist attacks on the values that built our nation are insidious because they replace each foundational belief, from the rights to free speech and self-defense to the importance of marriage and faith communities, with nothing more than an increased reliance on the government.
This twisted disintegrationist vision replaces the traditional “unionist” understanding that all Americans are united in a shared striving toward the perfection of universal ideals.
How to Destroy America in Three Easy Steps shows that to be a cohesive nation we have to uphold foundational truths about ourselves, our history, and reality itself - to be unionists instead of disintegrationists. Shapiro offers a vital warning that if we don’t recover these shared truths, our future - our union - as a great country is threatened with destruction.

Very insighting
There are some obvious omissions and some historical inaccuracies but other than that it’s quite a balanced point of view.
Read a bit too fast to be able to absorb every detail.
Loved the impersonations, especially Bernie Sanders.

Fantastic
I’m not surprised that Ben has created such a great book, being as smart and inquisitive as he is.
My only complaint is the awful Obama impersonating 😆

Anti-SJW at it's best!
Whilst articulating an unfashionable point of view, Shapiro delivers a (mostly) balanced critique of the prevailing political view of America that currently finds favour on the Left of the political isle. Shapiro is an unapologetic conservative, so his rejection of the oppression Olympics currently playing out in the West, and in America more than anywhere else is hardly surprising.
He doesn't shy away from America's racist past, or her other shortcomings, but refuses to condemn America as inherently corrupt, and holds up her founding ideals as a shining house on a hill, even if America has fallen short of these ideals on more than one occasion.
Shapiro talks at 100mph quite often, but apart from that, reads his own work well.

I'm not even from the US....
I'm not even from the US, but what is happening in America is happening everywhere. Swedens (where I am from) University elite are now calling to defund/dismantle the police in our country... People around me where I live in the UK are very hostile towards anything that resembles Conservative thinking. This book is as Ben himself said in an interview... Almost profetic considering it was written before the biggest effects of the dissintergrationists ideology came to play. I know its been happening for a while, I ha e been following it since 2015... But to see it to this level is scary to say the least. Whether you are on the right or on the left, read the book. Its not just good. It's brilliant.

Great overview of conservative thinking
If you want to understand American politics and the mythology of conservative America then this is a very good start. Ben Shapiro is impressively intelligent and his arguments are well articulated.

Shapiro is brilliant as always! A true & accurate delivery of history with a resounding rebuttal to the dangerous Marxist ideologies taking over the US.
