Woke Is Dead

How common sense triumphed in an age of total madness

De: Piers Morgan

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.

To the point

Right on the money! Explains the insanity from the past several years. Enjoyed every single word.

Brilliant

A brilliant take on the living purgatory that we’ve just lived through over the last 10+ years, how we ALL recover and learn from it. A must-listen for all.

Bloody Brilliant

Piers makes phenomenal points. He really is the best in the freaking UK!!!! Thanks for kicking ass Pjers

Cray-cray groupthink is thankfully being shut down by thousands of years of imbedded common sense and basic human principals.

Refreshing Brutal Honesty about how derailed this country has become from 5% of thinking being promoted as 50%+ group think is thankfully being pushed back into its fringe box of crazy…along with Neo Nazis and other segregation specialists. Many talented “Lefties” are realizing that they hooked their wagon to the wrong horse…and their ratings and integrity have been shredded. The fact that Mr. Morgan was able to fill an entire book with all the anti-common sense ideas that 90% of Media and 60% of politicians tried to jam down our throats the past 10 years shows just how ridiculous, and briefly successful, this woke religion became. Love your neighbor as yourself and give your time to people based on their humanity, needs, and/or b/c they are a joy to be around…not because of their skin, genetics, politics, or sexual parts or preferences. Piers does a brilliant job of breaking things down to their basics and taking a real life approach to debunking the nonsense being promoted as irrational new norms. A great read!!

Most Fantastic!!

I thoroughly enjoyed every word. Delightfully funny! We lived in Brackley, Oxfordshire for two years, wonderful experience and very educational for our two young boys. Thank you, you having so much common sense!
