How to Destroy America in Three Easy Steps

by Ben Shapiro

So, how have Disintegrationists succeeded in convincing millions of Americans that America’s philosophy, culture, institutions, and history are all worth overthrowing? They’ve provided a subversive but seductive view of America as an evil actor—and provided an alternative Unionism rooted in intersectional solidarity. Intersectionality, in its original iteration, was perfectly plausible: it suggested that Americans may be targeted based on membership in more than one minority category. So, for example, a black woman might meet discrimination in a different way than a white woman. But intersectionality has instead become a rallying cry for Disintegrationists who aver that America is subject to unbending, rigid hierarchies that can be torn down only by uprooting the entire American system. Thus, membership in a historically victimized group serves as the glue to hold together an anti-Unionism coalition. In opposition to the system lies a new solidarity.
