I propose that false narratives help fragment our society and people like Jordan Peterson know this. Truth is hard to find and the mess in American politics is truly messy. The loss of religion and the promotion of the concept of self and rights of the self without common morality or moral icons to show the way is a problem.
Thank you for your comment. Many of the books written by Paul Kengor, PhD, address these issues. His book "The Devil and Karl Marx" is a good place to start.
Thank you, Elizabeth, for this very timely editorial. We need the truth to be told. As Saint Augustine said, "The truth is like a lion. You don't have to defend it. Let it loose. It will defend itself." Let's let the truth loose. Don't stop.
This is exciting! It feels good to publish my first 2026 newsletter.

Why is a fragmented society a problem?
I suggest reading "The Dying Citizen" by Victor Davis Hanson. He looks at your question from many angles.

Because we lose sight of what’s truly important.
