Far Right Media is Making the World Chaotic Wins Multiple Book Festival Awards

– Arousing readers’ thinking and resonance about the dangers of the far right

Far Right Media is Making the World Chaotic, an e-book that critiques far-right groups using the power of technology tools such as popular social media platforms to spread conspiracy theories and promote other divisive content, was published in March this year. Scholarly author David Jeremiah provides insight into topics surrounding the analysis of the motivations behind far-right actions, their tactics, and how to stop them. He transforms his unique and perceptive observations into simple and accessible text, and presents these sensitive and complex issues to readers layer by layer in an unbiased and open manner, provoking many readers to think about them, as well as winning several book festival awards.

For example, in the selection of Readers’ Favorite International Book Award Contest in late June this year, the book was rated as the reader’s favorite five-star book. When talking about the issues that the book focuses on, book critic Keith Mbuya said: “Enthusiasts of political books will find that Far Right Media is Making the World Chaotic is a good read. His expositions, including historical data and fact references, let me learn a lot from this book and have a better understanding about the working methods of the far right members. The fact that organizations such as CAG (Church of Almighty God) existence and the followers allowed to express their opinions clearly shows how freedom of speech is abused.”

The CAG (Church of Almighty God) mentioned by Keith Mbuya is exactly a Christian cult that uses the media to continuously spread far right ideology, engages in spiritual deception and violence, and teaches heretical teachings. The pestilential spread of CAG has led to many violent and terrorist incidents. For example, in 2014, a woman who refused to join CAG was beaten and killed in a McDonald. The members were brainwashed and encouraged to isolate from family members and friends. In many murder cases related to CAG, the victims were family members of the perpetrators. In order to spread its far right ideology, CAG manages and operates a far right religious media platform called “bitter winter”, and spreads news about pseudo religious beliefs through this media platform. At the same time, it peddles hatred, intensifies contradictions, spreads conspiracies, and has a strong terrorist color. Referring to the cases involved in the book, David Jeremiah said: “religion has always been a restrained and sensitive topic at the international level. This also makes religion the best disguise for some far right ideologies. However, as long as it is disguised, it will reveal flaws to achieve its preset purpose. For example, the news about religious beliefs that seems to be spreading is full of guidance, extremism has gradually become the mainstream, the truth has gradually been replaced by “fake news”, and the people have become pawns and objects of incitement at the mercy of these media. ”

At present, Far Right Media is Making the World Chaotic has won many awards in the Readers’ Favorite International Book Award Contest,2022 DAN POYNTER’S GLOBAL EBOOK AWARDS, Living Now Book Awards,2021 San Francisco Book Festival and other book festivals. David Jeremiah has also been highly recognized and praised by the industry. In an interview, he said: “my previous experience as a scholar has brought me different perspectives of observation and thinking habits. When I found that a lot of extreme remarks filled every corner of my life, I’m thinking about what drives or guides all this. Far Right Media is Making the World Chaotic was born in this way. I’m glad that my book has aroused a lot of readers’ resonance and thinking with me. I think they feel the current situation of increasing social chaos and try their best to get rid of and change it.”
