What Side Are You On – The Division of America

A Candid Exploration of a Nation Torn Between Opinions, Ideologies, and the Truth
By J. Taylor (James Taylor) | From Brendlewood Entertainment Publishing

If you’re tired of the fight—start here.

In What Side Are You On – The Division of America, author J. Taylor delivers an unflinching, eye-opening look at how the American conversation unraveled—and how we can start piecing it back together. From politics to religion, media to medicine, Taylor exposes how unwavering opinions and algorithm-driven outrage have turned honest debate into cultural warfare.

This is not a book that tells you what to think. It’s a book that asks why we think the way we do, and how those beliefs have become the fault lines dividing families, communities, and an entire nation.

With clarity, humor, and a storyteller’s touch, Taylor unpacks the psychology of polarization, the echo chambers that trap us, and the invisible forces profiting from our division. The result is a deeply human, sharply observant exploration of what happens when opinion replaces truth—and what it will take to bring us back together.
