Establishing the enemy, the woke! Whoever they are! This dualistic rant of us against them is sickening And just a promotion of trumpism Which I'm sure you'll find he's been paid promised Handsomely for ...Just like Donald Trump has done throughout his lifetime, paying the national Inquirer, and other pay to publish, check book journalism... **Review of "We Have a Problem" by Dr. Phil** In his latest book, "We Have a Problem," Dr. Phil uses his prominent platform to stoke division and promote harmful ideologies that threaten the very fabric of our society. As he leans into rhetoric that evokes fears about "wokeness"—a term he uses derogatorily without clear definition—he appears to be shaping a narrative that aligns with extreme political movements, including Christian nationalism and Trumpism. Dr. Phil’s attempt to capitalize on the current cultural climate raises serious concerns. His promotion of viewpoints that encourage racism and intolerance, particularly against LGBTQ+ individuals and advocates for diversity, is not just misleading; it is dangerous. This book is more than just a personal perspective; it feeds into the ongoing culture war that has left many marginalized communities vulnerable. Moreover, this troubling discourse comes at a time when major media outlets, such as Fox News, are facing significant criticism and legal challenges for spreading misinformation. By taking such a divisive stance, Dr. Phil risks exacerbating societal tensions and promoting a narrative of hatred instead of understanding. I urge readers to approach this book with caution and to critically evaluate the underlying messages it conveys. It is crucial to be aware of how influential figures can shape public perception and discourse, often to the detriment of unity and compassion in our society. We must remain vigilant against rhetoric that seeks to divide us rather than bring us together.
