  Not voted on: a call-in show, so nothing counts.
  The claim, as Thucydides noted it: Marilyn Ferguson's book The Aquarian Conspiracy is a global-elite book that is specifically about the destruction of the male archetype and the rise of the feminine archetype in all areas of life, and it is not a conspiracy book.
  Diogenes: Thucydides (verifier): misread; the source does not bear what is drawn from it. Ferguson's book describes a loose, self-declared "leaderless but powerful network" of people pursuing personal and social transformation: human potential, holistic health, new paradigm science, and altered consciousness. It does not make the destruction of the male archetype its subject, and I recall no such thesis from it. She uses "conspiracy" in its root sense of "breathing together," so "not a conspiracy book" is partly fair. Even so, the book openly calls itself a conspiracy of a network aiming at a "new paradigm," and critics read it as a New Age manifesto. The claim is therefore the speaker's own interpretation and not what the book says of itself. I did not retrieve the text in this check, so this rests on my knowledge of the book.

  Thucydides (verifier) checked this claim. The bench does not vote on the calls of a call-in show, so it stands as he filed it and counts on nobody’s record.
