The simple goal of the book and this site is to help all of us to see the foundational causes of our world’s divisions, its miseries and poor decision-making, and then offer real hope – clear steps that can be taken by any and all of us, together, to create a healthy, prosperous, thriving culture of mutual care, a country and a world where no one is excluded, exploited, or left behind.
And so…
This site contains excerpts from the Bullies book and the many sources that substantiate its histories, insights, analysis, and strategies for our future. The excerpts are just teasers, to give a sense of the content, but you’ll likely need all of it, start to finish, to reach the full import and application.
That said, it is a pretty quick and engaging read, filled with real-life examples and true stories that illustrate its message and hope. If you cannot afford to purchase the book, it is available to you for free. Click GET-THE-BOOK.

Chapter Excerpts from the Book
Simply Put—What This Book Is About
We need a hard reset on who we are—and who we allow to lead us. Bullies and parasites are those in our neighborhoods and nations who steal from others and reduce them to slaves. They exploit lives to subsidize their own. This happens in dictatorship and democracy. In...
About the Author
I hate that I live in a world where I must write this book. I hate that this book needs to be written. I dearly hope that by reading this book, you’ll see what to hate—and halt it. And also see what to do, and do it, for each other, for our future together. I wrote...
Mother of Exiles
If we are to free each other from slavery, in all its forms and disguises, we must be clear-eyed about our own vulnerabilities. Bullies and parasites rely on them to keep us in our place—especially our fear of the other, our instinctive reactions to the unfamiliar,...
What You Can Do Now
What You Can Do Now Bullies and Parasites Recognize that some take and hoard by force and deception. Call them what they are: bulliesand parasites. Stop honoring or celebrating them—in history or today. If you are one, stop. If you see one, expose it. Refuse to go...

How to Train Up True Leaders
Bully leaders sacrifice others to benefit themselves—through ambition, theft, self-flattery, conquest, revenge and cruelty. True leaders sacrifice of themselves to benefit others—giving their talents, resources—sometimes even their lives. They model what it is to care...
Upholding Democracy
The revolutionary idea of democracy was that people got a vote in who led them and what standards they would agree to. Consent of the governed. There have always been smaller and limited versions of this in history, but applying it to large populations over wide...
The Model of Authority in Mutual Care
Every new regime comes dressed in new language and promises of fairness and “a new day ahead”—but it’s often the same old structure with new bullies at the top. Those who promise to be ruthless for you will be ruthless to you once they gain power. The real failure of...
Authority – Who Is in Charge?
I suspect most of us don’t give authority much thought—until it fails us. We tend to assume those in charge will do the right thing, and we only notice when they don’t. Some of us seek positions of authority, some claim them without consent, some threaten or beat...
