Review: Outstanding writing and well-structured arguments. - Since 1998, Ilana Mercer has distinguished herself with her eloquence and well-structured arguments in her weekly column. Among her paleo and libertarian peers, you'd be hard-pressed to find one who can match Mrs. Mercer's skill as a wordsmith. "The Paleolibertarian Guide to Deep Tech, Deep Tech & Big Pharma" is the first in a series and her fourth full-length book. Longtime readers will be familiar with Mrs. Mercer's analytical framework, but the prologue will get new readers up to speed on the principles she applies to the timely issues of tech behemoths and pharma cartels. In the tradition of the Austrian School of economics, Mrs. Mercer embraces the axiomatic-deductive method. Certain propositions are a priori true and do not require testing. "Science," she writes, "without the philosophy of science is thus nonsense." Particularly useful is the definition of paleolibertarianism. Libertarianism begins with private property rights, including self-ownership. Paleolibertarianism, as Mrs. Mercer sees it, recognizes that liberty has cultural prerequisites — a civilizational dimension as she puts it — without which liberty cannot endure. Mrs. Mercer emphasizes the peculiarity of libertarian ethics to the West and contrasts her view with the libertarianism promoted in the Beltway by the Cato Institute and Reason Magazine. Mrs. Mercer astutely notes the similarities between the Beltway libertarians — whom she has dubbed "lite libertarians" — and neoconservatives. Namely, that both believe liberty can(and should) be exported to the third world without any consideration given to biology, history, hierarchy, etc. As in her earlier works, Mrs. Mercer addresses the controversial issues head on. Her groundbreaking study of post-apartheid South Africa, "Into the Cannibal's Pot," provided a prescient warning for America back in 2011 while her previous book, 2016's "The Trump Revolution," was the first systematic paleolibertarian analysis of the Trump phenomenon. While Mrs. Mercer's anti-statism places her firmly in the libertarian tradition, one intriguing aspect of this book is that it's informed by the theory of the managerial revolution, originally formulated by James Burnham. Accordingly, Mrs. Mercer recognizes that the managerial state and economy have fused and therefore rejects the libertarian orthodoxy on corporations. In a society that increasingly relies on technology, Mrs. Mercer highlights the threat to liberty posed by ostensibly private companies. Notably, she addresses the use of financial deplatforming in order to discipline a mass audience and inculcate the anti-white ideology of the managerial regime. Contra many libertarians, Mrs. Mercer rejects defeatist arguments from theoretical purity on the issue of tech censorship. Mrs. Mercer's sharp polemical style makes for an informative and highly entertaining read. We should be grateful that this is only the first book in the "Paleolibertarian Guide" series.
Review: Required reading - If an informed citizenry is a rampart against tyranny, this book should be required reading for all. Of course, this is only the first part of a trilogy, but Ilana Mercer already speaks the unescapable truth about important issues. Now, this is not a dense tome reversed for academics. This is a highly readable, entertaining book that you will often go back to just to savour some particularly thought-provoking phrase. And there's a lot of wry humour to, like when she gleefully skewers Justin Trudeau This Canadian was vastly amused, and saddened to think how right she is. I strongly recommend this book, but I also suggest following her on social media. She is witty, thought-provoking, and as a bonus, strikingly attractive with a mesmering voice lol

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Another Must-Read from IIana Mercer!
*by K***C on June 5, 2024*

Having been a loyal reader of Mercer since my university days, I can say with all honesty that her work has been a major force in my intellectual growth. Even on the rare occasions we’ve disagreed I came away with a better understanding of the opposing view. Put plainly, reading Mercer makes you smarter, and this book, her latest, is no exception. This won’t come as a surprise to her legion of admires, but if you’re stuck in the A.M talk-radio echo-chamber of Con-Inc company men going over the same Republican good, Democrat bad talking points, it’ll be a much needed shot in the arm. The prologue alone is worth the price of admission, where she explains the sometimes misunderstood philosophy of paleo-libertarianism. Which is not to be confused with goofy Reason magazine types whose main concern is easy access to edibles. It’s a lengthy piece, coming in at nearly 400 pages, and broken up into nine sections covering subjects such as Deep Tech’s effect on the homeless, Deep Pharma’s scapegoating of China and even a brief story of personal censorship. For dealing with such serious subject matter, it reads fast with the author’s usual mastery of the language. Perfect for the fan and even better as a primer for the uninitiated. Give them this and then “Into the Cannibal’s Pot,” Mercer's brilliant book on the history and current state of South Africa.
