The book "Cynical Theories" by Helen Pluckrose and James Lindsay is a bold polemic against false narratives that have dominated the media and the world of science. The authors expose the mechanisms of "cancel culture" and analyze how absurd beliefs threaten our freedom.

This book is the result of the provocation known as the "Grievance Studies Affair," in which the authors submitted fabricated articles, full of abuses and absurd conclusions, for publication in reputable scientific journals. The aim was to investigate whether contemporary social sciences are susceptible to publishing pseudoscientific content. It turned out that some of these articles were accepted for publication, which revealed serious problems in the process of reviewing and evaluating scientific research.

"Cynical Theories" is not only an analysis of problems, but also an attempt to find an answer to the question of why scientific journals agreed to publish such absurd content. The authors analyze the ideological roots of contemporary social sciences and point to the dangers associated with the dominance of false beliefs. This book is a must-read for anyone who wants to understand the modern world and defend freedom of thought.
