Ben Shapiro's The Authoritarian Moment argues that the American left has weaponized institutions against dissent. Shapiro contends that left-wing authoritarianism, marked by top-down censorship and anti-conventionalism, is increasingly prevalent in academia, media, corporations, and even science. He examines how this has marginalized conservative and traditional liberal voices, facilitated by renormalization and the manipulation of social media. The book alleges that this authoritarian left seeks to silence opposing viewpoints and enforce ideological homogeneity, ultimately threatening American democracy. Shapiro concludes by suggesting a strategy of resistance through intransigence and a renewed commitment to individual liberty.
