Description
A SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER
Piers Morgan welcomes the return of a common-sense world
They claimed it was a movement that would change society forever. Instead, it's been buried six feet under by common sense.
For a decade, "woke" infected every corner of our lives. Cancel culture ran riot. Men became toxic. Virtue signalling was everywhere. And if you dared disagree? You'd be terminated on the spot.
But then something extraordinary happened. All over the world, people woke up.
In this explosive and uproarious takedown, Piers Morgan charts the spectacular collapse of the most ridiculous ideology in human history. With his trademark wit and fearless honesty, he exposes the hypocrites, destroys the myths, and celebrates the heroes who refused to surrender to the woke brigade.
Inside, Morgan takes aim at the madness wherever it's hiding and calls out the absurdity with humour, logic, and outrage. He pulls no punches as he tackles:
Hollywood hypocrisy - when celebrity virtue-signaling became it's own performance
Environ-mentalists - how saving the planet turned into shouting about plastic straws
Go Woke, Go Broke - from brand deals to the price of moral posturing
Word Police - the battle over language and what you can and can't say
And much more
But this isn't just about pointing and laughing at the wreckage. With his unique blend of savage humour and surprising wisdom, Morgan offers a roadmap for navigating our post-woke world and a less divided, more sensible society.
Woke is Dead is the provocative, hilarious and essential read for anyone who wants to understand how an entire civilisation briefly lost its mind.
