Social media algorithms mainline toxic masculinity and alpha mandates right to their smartphones. Far-right radicalization has reached a fever pitch. Boys and young men are trending toward authoritarianism at higher rates than we've ever seen. We have a crisis on our hands. None of this is wrong, but it omits something critical--namely, the truths we miss when we spend all our time talking \u003ci\u003eabout\u003c\/i\u003e boys in 2026 instead of talking \u003ci\u003eto\u003c\/i\u003e them. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eConspirituality\u003c\/i\u003e co-host and author Matthew Remski offers a bold, heartfelt exploration of 12 conversations that antifascist dads can--and should--have with their sons. He offers tools for raising kids with empathy, accountability, and resilience, and challenges parents to unpack their own baggage, relate to their children with authenticity and vulnerability, and avoid the traps of false comfort and needing to be \"right.\" He also helps parents break down complex ideas in age-appropriate ways--and elucidates why we should even be talking with our kids about fascism anyway. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eTimely, provocative, and urgently necessary, \u003ci\u003eAntifascist Dad\u003c\/i\u003e taps into the conversations we need to have, and offers frames to do it well: What is fascism? Where does it come from? What are we up against? Why is this a parenting issue? Remski also explores hot-button issues, delving into incel culture; why smartphones and social aren't really the issue; moralities of resistance á la Luigi Mangione; and that the problem extends far beyond the obvious: we need to raise boys who will stand up against the status quo just as much as we need to intervene on the violent lone wolf. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eAt a time when boys are being radicalized and manosphere influencers are messaging harmful models about what it means to \"be a man,\" \u003ci\u003eAntifascist Dad \u003c\/i\u003eoffers a powerful counterpoint and a call-in to parents--to see their boys for who they are, to own their own shortcomings, and to step bravely into the conversations that matter.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Matthew Remski\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9798889843290\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e North Atlantic Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/21\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 296\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.81lbs","brand":"Matthew Remski","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47201166065919,"sku":"9798889843290","price":21.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_f4a1b70a-131a-4c2e-ae49-d7f29a61aae5.jpg?v=1756789073","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/antifascist-dad-matthew-remski-9798889843290","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
