Unhumans: The Secret History of Communist Revolutions (and How to Crush Them) is a reactionary book written by far-right influencers Jack Posobiec and Joshua Lisec, with a foreword from Republican demagogue Steve Bannon. The book details Posobiec’s and the far-right’s beliefs that certain people (leftists, liberals, progressives, Democrats, and anyone they don’t like and don’t agree with politically) are “unhumans” dedicated to destroying society, civilization, and basically the world.
The books focused on the communist revolutions throughout history (mostly those of Russia and China) and uses that as a scapegoat to paint all progressives today (who are not a monolith) as one and the same, intent on destroying western civilization, and that the only way to dispose of them is with violence.[1]
The book made waves in 2024 after it was revealed that JD Vance endorsed the book and wrote a blurb (a positive review) for the book itself and the authors, stating that he agreed with the points in the book. He also used the book in defending the January 6th rioters.[2]
