The New York Times bestselling author of The Benedict Option draws on the wisdom of Christian survivors of Soviet persecution to warn American Christians of approaching dangers.For years, émigrés from the former Soviet bloc have been telling Rod Dreher they see telltale signs of "soft" totalitarianism cropping up in America--something more Brave New World than Nineteen Eighty-Four. Identity politics are beginning to encroach on every aspect of life. Civil liberties are increasingly seen as a threat to "safety". Progressives marginalize conservative, traditional Christians, and other dissenters. Technology and consumerism hasten the possibility of a corporate surveillance state. And the pandemic, having put millions out of work, leaves our country especially vulnerable to demagogic manipulation.In Live Not By Lies, Dreher amplifies the alarm sounded by the brave men and women who fought totalitarianism. He explains how the totalitarianism facing us today is based less on overt violence and more on psychological manipulation. He tells the stories of modern-day dissidents--clergy, laity, martyrs, and confessors from the Soviet Union and the captive nations of Europe--who offer practical advice for how to identify and resist totalitarianism in our time. Following the model offered by a prophetic World War II-era pastor who prepared believers in his Eastern European to endure the coming of communism, Live Not By Lies teaches American Christians a method for resistance:    SEE: Acknowledge the reality of the situation.    JUDGE: Assess reality in the light of what we as Christians know to be true.    ACT: Take action to protect truth.Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn famously said that one of the biggest mistakes people make is assuming totalitarianism can't happen in their country. Many American Christians are making that mistake today, sleepwalking through the erosion of our freedoms. Live Not By Lies will wake them and equip them for the long resistance.

Dreher grabbed the title of his book from the last essay by Solzhenitsyn, written just before he was exiled in 1974.That gives the entire book an ominous cast, and it's meant to.Dreher had heard from many people, such as an elderly immigrant from Czechoslovakia, who became terrified by the social justice warriors cancelling anyone who dared to deviate from the newest orthodoxy. The elderly woman insisted it was similar to what she experienced under Communism. Gone was any respect for freedom of speech. Even the smallest deviance from the accepted leftist belief was ruthlessly crushed, and the holder of that hateful opinion viewed as a transgressor who must be "cast into utter darkness"."The old world of classical liberalism is dying" Dreher dryly notes, and it's successor, slouching to Jerusalem, appears to be a form of soft totalitarianism.Once upon a bygone era in the old Soviet Union, totalitarianism meant the politicization of everything. Even chess players were told they should be the "shock players" of the coming Communist tomorrow. Totalitarianism replaced first rate intellects with sycophants of the latest woke dogma and created the greatest and bloodiest abattoir in the history of the world.Not that the new progressives know this, or care. The woke generation today embraces transgression, protests, breaking windows and setting fires, and hates America, hates her past, and hates her institutions. Has no respect for authority. Seeks to undermine such hierarchies as the police. Heresy hunters pounce on the slightest divergence."Far from being moral relativists" they are fanatical Puritans. Progressivism is a form of religion, with faith not in God but in the future, which of course will be better. Religion once gave purpose to life and bound people into communities, but today pornography is everywhere while marriage declines.What can we do? Dreher argues we have to fight for the truth, and be willing to accept the consequences. "Choose a life apart from the crowd" he suggests, building communities of believers.This may well have sad consequences for our careers. You may lose status, worldly success, and live in poverty. And there may well be real suffering in the future.But defending the truth and freedom is worth it.
