SJWs Always Lie: Taking Down the Thought Police is a 2015 book by alt-right/alt-lite personalities Vox Day and Milo Yiannopoulos. The book posits itself as a guide to arguing against socially liberal opponents who espouse a pro-social justice viewpoint.
Some advice might apply to MAPs and sympathizers who have been subject to Validity Policing by fanpol, a group arguably comparable to "SJWs" the book critiques.
Description
The authors cast "Social Justice Warriors" as "dominant in the West," lamenting their influence in government, video games, and elsewhere and decrying "speech policing" of opposing views. "They police science, philosophy, technology, and even history in order to maintain the pretense that their agenda remains inevitable in a modern world that contradicts it on a daily basis," reads the publisher's description, casting the tome as "a powerful weapon in the cultural war against the thought police."[1]
Yiannopoulos has amassed an estimated net worth of some $2-4 million proffering such claims,[2][3][4] reportedly collecting advances of up to $250,000 from publishing giant Simon & Schuster.[5]
The alt-right and thought-policing since 2015
It is worth noting that the lead author (Vox Day) himself does not seem to be MAP friendly,[6] and the book was written very much from the perspective of heterodox thinkers and conservatives facing corporate/media "cancellation" in the culture wars of the 2010s. Ironically, since those years, the alt-right/alt-lite insurgency that idolized Vox Day and Milo has since "matured" towards pedophile/elite conspiratorialism and uptight/moralistic values-led conservatism, repeatedly attempting to cancel MAP sympathizers, starting with (purportedly) Milo himself.
