Book Review: Tenure 2, Social Street Justice

Words are not violence—violence is violence

In the first book, Braxton Knox lost everything to the woke mob of AntiFa: his wife, his daughter, his job. In his quest for justice against the mob, he gathered some allies: Ronin, the computer expert, backed by a mysterious billionaire who owns a social media company; and Faye, a reporter who was red-pilled at gunpoint.

Now that his own quest for justice has been fulfilled, Braxton wants to make sure that what happens to him never happens to anyone else. And maybe if you can find them, you can hire, the Tenure team…

Sorry, I drifted there for a moment.

Can you tell the one of the co-authors is Mike Baron, who is famous for working on The Punisher comic books?

The Story

After the events of Tenure, Braxton Knox received an outpouring of letters telling them of their own encounters with the woke. And Braxton wants to restore to these victims everything the cancel mob took away from them.

First is a Christian candy maker in Indianapolis, who refused to make chocolate genitalia (with white frosting ejaculate) for an anonymous online troll. His business was destroyed by online mobs, his family fell apart. He lost everything.

(He is not a Christian baker. Repeat. He is not a Christian baker. Any similarities to real events are purely coincidental.)

Braxton is going to hunt down the ringleaders of these keyboard commandos, and show them that words are not violence—violence is violence. When the woke babies call in some actual muscle, events spiral.

Is this as good as Tenure? No, only because it is impossible to recreate all of the emotion gut punches in that book.

The Characters

Tenure 2 is interesting for the continued character arc of … almost everyone, really. Braxton is only starting out in his role as Nemesis, and he has enough of a military history background that he builds plans quickly. But he’s also playing parts by ear, deciding who lives and who dies, sometimes at the last moment, showing mercy when even he doesn’t expect to. But he’s going to have to learn to stay out of the trunks of other people’s cars.

Ronin (not to be confused with Frank Castle’s microchip) is still getting accustomed to getting his hands dirty … and bloody … in the real world.

And Faye, not to be confused with the reporter from the A-Team, also has a learning curve…and it better come soon, otherwise, she’s going to get someone killed.

We don’t spend much time with our primary antagonist, but we spend more than enough. He’s a narcissistic sociopath, like every Leftist psychopath. He’s very well psychologically profiled, and you can tell that Blaine is merging some of his personal experience with the cancel mob, and some of his serial killer research.

The World

This is very much our world, damn it.

Politics

HAHAHAHAHAHA.

Is there politics in this novel?

Is water wet?

Luckily, it’s not exactly preachy. A lot of it is psychological profiling of pathological personalities utilizing political causes as weapons in order to destroy people to the best of their ability.

Content Warning

PG-13 punisher. With a decapitation or two.

Who is it for?

If you ever wanted to see the Punisher go after the woke psychopaths you see on the television, trying to destroy people, and playing victim when folks swing back, you should read this.

Why buy it?

The Tenure series is what happens when the man who just wants to be left alone has finally had enough.
