Huge fan of Eric Hoffer. Read all his books and true believer many times.

There is an awesome interview on YouTube with Hoffer. Search "Eric Hoffer CBS interview"

Great backstory on that interview. A lot of people thought Hoffer was a fraud before this interview.

How could an uneducated person write something like the true believer?

Hoffer dropped out of school in like the 8th grade.

Anyway, they had this highly educated ivy league guy interview him and rest was history.

The guy was instantly mesmerized by Hoffers intellect.

Was shelved by CBS for over 50 years, then one day? Popped up on YouTube.

Finally, Demet Mathias recently expanded on Hoffers seminal work with his book, Totalitarianism.

Highly recommend it.

Explains mass formation and how people will not admit their mistakes even after the science is in.

It explains how highly educated and "intelligent" people can be so damn dumb, lol.

One additional tidbit. For those fans of Thomas Sowell? Sowell credits Hoffer as one of his main mentors.
