(Oct 13, 2024 07:25 AM)Jinu Wrote:  I can see how that would make it an intriguing read! Books that challenge the status quo or explore controversial topics always get you thinking. Do you have any favorite conspiracy theories from the book that really made you stop and question things?

He predicts some of the stuff that have happened in our life time in the US.. for example, the opiate epidemic.. he predicted that well over a decade before it happened, as well as predicted that with the exploitation of opiates and minors, would lead to "horrific school shootings" .. which has been taking place. The guy seemed to be ahead of his time.
