Madness of Crowds, I recommend everybody go out there and buy the book.
The host encourages listeners to purchase Douglas Murray's book, `The Madness of Crowds`, emphasizing its value and relevance.
By the way, a very quick example of that, if I may say this in The Madness of Crowds, is why we have the weird thing of people being thrown out of their character group if they think the wrong things.
Guest Douglas Murray explicitly refers to a point he made in The Madness of Crowds, highlighting that individuals are often ostracized from their social groups for holding different political beliefs.
One of the things that I say at one point in The Madness of Crowds is, if you play the intersectional game, including the representation game, on the terms of the intersectionalists, you actually may get yourself to a situation where all you've done is create a new hierarchy.
Guest Douglas Murray discusses a point he makes in 'The Madness of Crowds', suggesting that engaging with intersectionality on its own terms could lead to the formation of a new hierarchy.
The intersectionalists, who I critique in The Madness of Crowds, have always had a problem with class.
In this segment, guest Douglas Murray discusses his critique of intersectionalists as presented in his book, The Madness of Crowds, highlighting their ongoing challenges with the concept of class.
That doesn't mean that we shouldn't treat trans people with respect, but the trans question—and I say this in the last chapter of The Madness of Crowds—is a very little-known question.
In the podcast, guest Douglas Murray discusses the transgender issue, referencing how it is addressed in the last chapter of his book, `The Madness of Crowds`.
And I explain in The Madness of Crowds why the trans issue is quite unlike all the other bits of LGBT.
In this segment, guest Douglas Murray discusses his book, 'The Madness of Crowds,' explaining why he believes the transgender issue is distinct from other aspects of LGBT.
I would say this, first of all, by the way, I say in the gay chapter and I say in the trans chapter in The Madness of Crowds that the LGBT issue—I said this ahead of Dave Chappelle, I might add by the way—I said the LGBT bit of the alphabet doesn't add together.
In this segment, guest Douglas Murray talks about his insights regarding LGBTQ issues as discussed in his book, The Madness of Crowds.
I say this in The Madness of Crowds: to read a hugely celebrated black writer today like, like Toni Morrison is to read somebody who writes more angrily about America than James Baldwin did when there were many, many more things to be angry about.
In his book 'The Madness of Crowds', guest Douglas Murray addresses the contrasting emotional expressions of contemporary black writers compared to those from the civil rights era, highlighting that figures like Toni Morrison express a different kind of anger about America than writers such as James Baldwin faced during a time rife with greater injustices.
And one of the oddities of the situation in America in particular is—and I say this in The Madness of Crowds—the extent to which, after these battles are won, the wannabe dragon slayers who would have loved to have been with them with Martin Luther King in the march on Washington, who would have loved to have been the Stonewalling, who would have loved to have been with the Suffragettes, find themselves weirdly arguing more vociferously, unpleasantly than the people who were fighting the real fights.
Guest Douglas Murray refers to his book, "The Madness of Crowds," while discussing the peculiarities of social justice activism in America.

And it's certainly fair to say that elements of the left were more vocal, more involved in each of the rights movements that I'm talking about in The Madness of Crowds than they were on the right.
In this segment, guest Douglas Murray discusses the themes covered in his book 'The Madness of Crowds,' particularly highlighting how elements of the left have been more vocal and engaged in various rights movements compared to the right.
Now, here's one way of doing that—I say in The Madness of Crowds, what if we could agree on a certain definition and, indeed, objective?
In the interview, guest Douglas Murray refers to his book, 'The Madness of Crowds', while discussing the idea of reaching a consensus on certain definitions.
I'm very keen that people realize the two things: first of all, I completely agree with you, and it’s very important to state—I stated at the opening of The Madness of Crowds—every single one of the rights issues I'm talking about starts not only in a good place but an exceptionally admirable place.
