I'm DNFing this. This book strikes me less as "20 lessons on tyranny" and more of a "I'm going to spend 126 pages talking about how Trump IS Hitler," which is fine I guess, but I don't think that saying X President is Hitler is a useful or nuanced critique. We hear it every presidency. So yeah, in short: definitely better books about tyrannical regimes out there, I don't think this one is worth your time.

He's already compared communism to fascism and Nazism. Which if you're not aware: communist ideology is in DIRECT OPPOSITION to fascism. I don't really know how you can talk about the history of 20th century governments without understanding communism, so I hope he makes this clear later in the book!
