ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK

In "The Big Lie - Exposing the Nazi Roots of the American Left" by Dinesh D'Souza, the author presents a controversial argument asserting that the intellectual and historical origins of fascism and Nazism lie within left-wing thought. The book delves into the philosophical underpinnings of fascism, examining thinkers like Giovanni Gentile and their collectivist ideas. It draws parallels between historical events and practices of the American Democratic Party, such as Indian removal and slavery, to those of Nazi Germany. The narrative challenges the conventional understanding of the political spectrum by suggesting a hidden history linking the left to ideologies typically associated with the right. The concept of the "big lie" as a propaganda technique is also explored.
