Thank you for making this list! I will nominate Moral Ambition by Rutger Bregman, which is full of neoliberal effective altruism bullshit.

oooh i love this ill be keeping an eyeball!! on tyranny by tim snyder fits imo, its very much written to appeal to suburban middle class white obama liberals. he’s a great historian but that’s not his best or indicative of his historian prowess at all imo
