It is good to speak up about the dangers to freedom, but it is better to at least try to understand what you are talking about before crying wolf on the roofs. For example, she talks about how many people in the helping professions I.e teachers tend to lean left and through this kids are being indoctrinated in schools . Nowhere does she bring up book bans, whitewashed history, and other means of suppression that comes from the right. There are many more example such as this though the book. I don't agree with all of the opinions that she's presented in this book but she brings up a lot of great points and offers a lot of food for thought. Also, the comparisons that she was able to draw between woke/cancel culture and North Korean dictatorship and propaganda were very interesting. Time" can also be used in a more abstract way to describe the concept of time, and some might instead say:

What's unique about this book is the love you can tell this woman has for America, the same way so many immigrants do. This place for her is not an expensive and oppressive prison, but a place unique in the world for the oppurtunities it provides. A book written by Jordan Peterson, edited by Ben Shapiro with the final amendments from Douglas Murray. This is pure right wing propaganda and While time remains, it should be exposed as such. It is divisive, polarizing and shows very limited understanding on anything. I think she does make some great points especially when discussing performative activism on the side of the left; however, I take issue with the fact that although the same issues can be said of the right, she only draws from examples from the left and compares “woke culture” to the North Korean regime.

NEED SOME HELP?

Will" is needed because the sentence is conditional and you are talking about something that will happen in the future if the condition is met. Thank you for standing up for truth and never stop fighting for it because you, me, and everyone else worldwide deserves life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness! Really, I have all the respect for this lady, this is why I read her book. I myself grew up (until 10) in a dictatorship and I am most grateful for being able to live in a democracy. I myself am an immigrant. I saw how damaged a society can be after 50 years in a dictatorship. I am no genius who managed to cover in 18 months the academic knowledge of 18 years in one of the most competitive educational systems like Mrs Park, and I am still painfully learning the intricacies of capitalism and markets and justice and freedom. She seems to have already acquired all the knowledge she needs to ring the alarm bells and explain all kinds of none sense about the dangers of woke culture and the goodness of Friedman (and, astonishingly, there are good parts in Friedman too). A North Korean Defector's Search for Freedom in America · Publisher Description · More Books by Yeonmi Park & Jordan B. Peterson. We all could be doing more to be less sensitive and use our excessive wealth and abilities to help people worldwide who are struggling just to live one more day. Her struggle to get to the USA and her continued ups and downs to get help for North Korea is heartbreaking. America is a beacon for the world and we need to fight for freedom, not fight amongst each other. We all know China is up to no good, so why aren't those in power doing more?

What she writes about is the trajectory she sees the US heading一one that limits freedom of speech, cancels and bans dissidents, ignores teaching critical thinking in favor of memorization, and absolves itself from individual responsibility一is very similar to what led North Koreans (and other societies) to give up their freedoms in favor of charismatic leaders who later revealed themselves to be villains. Some of the comparisons she makes are a bit difficult to grasp. She makes rapid-fire statements with little argumentation. Like when she compares anti-racism with Juche. Like, I’m sorry, just… how. Can we get an explanation? I find it easy to compare Trump’s MAGA with Juche, but… anti-racism? There were many other comparisons that were made the same way and I just can’t avoid assuming she knows most of her readers won’t know anything about North Korea but I just couldn’t make sense of a lot of things.Views Program ID: 526743-1 Category: Public Affairs Event Format: Speech Location: Salem, Virginia, United States First Aired: Apr 23, 2023 | 9:05am EDT | C-SPAN 2 Last Aired: Aug 22, 2023 | 7:11am EDT | C-SPAN 2 Airing Details No one in his right mind will consider that censuring free thought and critical thinking is good. If this is what happens in Colombia then it is good to speak up. No one in his right mind will think that the only way to pursue a relationship is by being gay and gender fluid and polyamory and so forth and that this is imposed by I don’t know who. I think she makes some salient points about cancel culture and performative activism among the left. However, those same discussions around cancel culture and cult of personality among the left read as somewhat foolish when no mention is made of right wing suppression of books, history, and science and the overall idolization of Donald Trump (not to mention his on again off again relationship with both the North Korean and Chinese rulers). Further, she is concerned that embracing "woke' ideologies and socialist politics will erode American democracy while again making no mention of a literal right wing insurrection and active voter suppression. She also relies largely on anecdotes to make her points rather than any real evidence or data. While Time Remains : A North Korean Defector's Search for Freedom in After defecting from North Korea, Yeonmi Park found liberty and freedom in America.
