    Mollie Hemingway: We by Yevgeny Zamyatin | The Book Club | PragerU
    Apr 21 2026
    A former Bolshevik wrote the first dystopian novel—before Orwell, before Huxley—and it predicted everything: AI replacing creativity, state-run families, engineered conformity, even citizens begging to be lobotomized. Michael Knowles and Mollie Hemingway crack open Zamyatin's We and discover a 1921 warning that reads like a 2026 headline. From COVID compliance to social-media groupthink to the destruction of the family, this forgotten Russian masterpiece holds a mirror up to us—and what stares back isn't comfortable. ▶️ Watch more episodes of The Book Club at: https://l.prageru.com/4tVOtTH ⭐ Enjoyed this episode?
