Yeah, I can see where the left-leaning crowd would get very upset with the portrayal of "social justice fundamentalism" in this book, and the fact that tearing it down is given far more space than critiques of modern conservatives. I've never considered myself totally "woke", but I like to think I lean more in that direction. The actual philosophy of SJF has me thinking maybe I can't ever be "woke." More exploration.

In response to my own previous update, I am heartened by the comments on this review that show an appreciation from people on the left for a critique of the extreme left:

I agree with the sentiment that tearing down the right would be the "expected" thing and come off slightly low rung thinking.

"Tim's-career-tanking deep dive into America's social justice movement." He certainly predicted what would get people on Goodreads riled up!

It's a shame too many people will skip the footnote explaining the classical definition of the word "liberal" versus the modern American political meaning of "left-wing."

Isn't an "Idea Lab" just a "Think Tank"? I assume there is a connotation to "think tank" Urban wanted to avoid?
