Dr. Gad Saad, the host of the enormously popular YouTube show THE SAAD TRUTH, exposes the bad ideas--what he calls 'idea pathogens'--that are killing common sense and rational debate. Incubated in our universities and spread through the tyrannyof political correctness, these ideas are endangering our most basic freedoms--including freedom of thought and speech"--
