Pope Leo X condemned heretics for attempting to "deceive the multitude of the simple." Modern commentators see the public as gullible and ignorant, easily manipulated and "simply unwilling to listen to reason". Our nation's founders, however, believed the people could think for themselves and rule their own lives. The United States was designed as a nation of ideals and an experiment in self-rule, not just in government but for individuals. After a history of tyranny, the people were free to think for themselves and reach their own conclusions about the most fundamental concepts of life without the civil authority enforcing the dictates of a religious establishment. 

But a new oppression has grown up in its place that uses government and the trappings of religion to enforce compliance as demonstrated by their response to Donald Trump and the America First movement. Tyranny of the Mind reveals a parallel between the Roman Catholic Church of historic Europe and the radical elitists in this country today, each presuming the common person incapable of thinking for themselves and making the "correct" decisions without the guidance of more knowledgeable, morally superior masters. By revealing the shared tactics of tyranny, Nazism and Fascism are placed where they belong with the other centrally controlled, authoritarian regimes that sacrifice the individual to the common good, a class, race or other group identity and far from the individualism of our founding.

Traditional media, establishment politics and liberal academic culture have abandoned and vilified the common Americans behind modern populist movements and the nation and founders they revere, twisting everything they believe into a grotesque caricature. Tyranny of the Mind counters this distortion, presenting historical figures in their own words, in context, exposing with prophetic clarity our founders' understanding of the conflicts we still face today, while providing new insights about the Anti-American efforts impacting our country. Tyranny of the Mind offers a thought-provoking exploration of the battle between elitists determined to rule and the independent thinking that defines the American spirit.

In the end, the question remains whether humanity shall submit to the will of others determined to control us or think for ourselves, see through their distortions and return America to its limited design and the control of its citizens.
