Racist book is poisoning the minds of young men
Earlier today, my son came to me (he's a young adult) and told me about how his friend, who has been growing increasingly radical in over immigration and the economy, was trying to promote a book to him. Apparently, it's being promoted to young men as some fix for the very real cost-of-living crisis and housing crisis.
I looked it up online (it was hard to find), and reading the description, it's very clearly some far-right coo-coo book. There are so many dog whistles here it's not even funny. I wasn't sure what the word remigration meant, its some codeword for deporting immigrants.
Has anyone else seen/heard of this spreading, or am I worrying about nothing? I have anxiety from previous experiences with the far right. Thankfully, I raised my son to be smarter than to fall for such obvious lies. But my son saying it's popular among the youth is worrying me. I feel increasingly like the far right is targeting young men, and they're falling for it. Especially worrying is that he told me that nobody buys it online, it's being handed out at secret events that his friend goes to in Toronto (we live in Brampton), and so my initial relief at the thing's ONE review (lol) was replaced by an even greater anxiety of secret far-right groups organizing.
If anyone knows anything about any of this/knows somebody who knows something, please let me know.
P.S: I also tried posting this on r/Canada but gave up after realizing I didn't/won't have enough karma or time on Reddit to do so anytime soon. I only used reddit before as an observer.
Edit: It doesn't seem to be anything to worry about. The comments have calmed my anxiety. It's likely just some scare/indotronation tactics by the far-right to try and coerce young men and kids into this bs. However, I still think it's important to call it out. My son questioned his friend sometime today, so I was able to learn more. It seems to be some propaganda handed out at far-right rallies to try to hook people in. Basically, vanity publishing trying to fund some right wing exteremism. I'm going to report it to Amazon and whatever else I can to try and get it taken down.
