Posobiec said his desire to write the book in the first place stemmed from him wanting to inform people about the "history of communism," beyond the typical topics surrounding the philosophy of communism.
"What happened in China, what happened in Russia, what happened in Russia, what happened in Spain, what happened in France, what happened in all these places around the world? What are the stories? Who are the people?" Posobiec specified, adding that he and Lisec discovered a "system."
"We were able to actually itemize this system and figure out how it's been run in country after country, time and again, time after time, place after place, people after people," he explained. "But it's always the same way they destabilize, infiltrate, subvert and take over countries."
Steve Bannon, who was just imprisoned for contempt of congress charges, notably, wrote the forward for the book, in which he calls for "action" from readers. Posobiec said that the final chapter of the book details "the system to combat, counter and subvert" communism.
Lisec noted that he and Posobiec realized the challenge of historical nonfiction is relevance, adding that, in the book, "our hypothesis is that we're currently undergoing an irregular communist revolution in the United States that's been slow walked through all institutions since the 1950s 1960s and we look at characters who have been despised by not just left-wing educators and entertainment, but even the center and even the right."
