Herbert Marcuse's "One Dimensional Man." This was nearly 30 years ago and it fascinated and confused me at the time. But I soon realized how full of tripe it was with all this "false consciousness, no one can really know anything," stuff. As I recall, the professor was actually trying to lure us to be critical, but lefties mostly dominated the class.

THe first post with Marcuse's "opus" onedimensionalman.

Man, you beat me.

Catcher in the Rye in HS sucks too. Let's make 16 year olds read a despondent book about a depressed 16 year old.

BOOORING! No wonder so many people hate reading. They've been brought up on a diet of PC books.
