The People Are Going to Rise Like the Waters Upon Your Shore: A Story of American Rage by Jared Yates Sexton

5.0

This caught my attention because i’m one of those people mentioned in the book that didn’t understand what led people to elect someone like trump or bolsonaro in brazil. This book has answers for that that aren’t as simple as “people did it just because they’re hateful and there’s no way around it”. I felt like he really explored the psychology and the role of the media behind it. I think this is a must read for everyone and highly recommend following him on twitter too. I thought it was a bit boring in the end, but a few weeks later I still can't stop thinking abt this book.
