Many of the “Good-willed,” don’t care about the cause or the people they claim to serve. The suffering only serves to stoke the flames of their personal failures and the entities (people, corporations, races, aliens, the list goes on) that are responsible for their suffering.

Follow the Loser takes a look into the dark shadows and deep secrets of some of the most prominent leaders of the past two centuries.

There was a long list of people considered, but I settled on nine, and for specific reasons. The focus of the book is on the techniques people use to deceive an audience and gain their support. It also looks into the dumpster fire of their personal lives and asks the question, “Why would anyone follow these utter failures?”

We begin with Karl Marx, the Father of Communism. He’s often referred to as an intellectual and high-thinker. He spent much of his time getting drunk and causing problems.

We then go to characters from the Russian Revolution and the founders of the Soviet Union. These are Vladimir Lenin, Leon Trotsky, and Joseph Stalin. You’d be hard-pressed to find any virtue among these guys. And while Lenin is credited for the revolution that unseated the Romanov dynasty, he wasn’t even present at any of the major protests.

From there, we go to the archenemies of communism, the fascists. For this, we look into the lives of Benito Mussolini and Adolf Hitler. Mussolini was the founder of the fascist party and was admired by Hitler. You’ll be surprised to learn what fascism really means, from the man who created the party. I thought everything about Hitler was already common knowledge, but there is so much that was overlooked within our historical references. You’ll have to hold on tight through this chapter.
