Haven't done a deep look but this could be good to share with some of your family members.

Edit: here's a direct link to the ebook (PDF) since the main page seems to ask for an email to get the link.

Looks like another trap.

What makes you think that? Admittedly I didn't do any vetting aside from a quick read through of some and watching a bit of a video.

Probably the “supply your email for a free ebook”

That's a valid concern. I came accross this from a YouTube video. and the book is linked in the description [PDF]

Millions have cut off relations with loved ones or friends who became MAGA Americans, and I understand why. I fervently believe, however, that the imperative to continue perfecting our union and democracy make it incumbent upon us to reach out to those in MAGA, to empower them to start questioning the movement’s ethos.

As I noted earlier, MAGA was all-consuming for me. I never took an hour off from waging an existential, life-or-death battle against my enemies. Attacks against Trump were attacks on us, his supporters, and strengthened our already-strong bond with him and each other. This needs to be front of mind as we consider how best to help others leave the movement.

After consulting with experts, we have devised some suggestions for how someone might endeavor to reach out to a MAGA loved one or friend. These are not one-size-fits-all recommendations; we’re well aware that every individual has their own story and every relationship has its own dynamics

What people should do is download the free e-book and distribute it instead of making them provide their email address for further communication and documentation

I agree, but I'm not the one that needs to hear this.

I was never MAGA and I'm not even American.

Edit:I added the link to the main post.
