Here's a good starting point for beginners: Subverted (if you're broke, send me a message with contact info, and I can lend you my Kindle edition for a short time).
Another valuable resource is this link to an examination of the Socialist leanings of Betty Friedan. Her pushing of Feminism was in great part due to her Leftist philosophy, not the reverse. Her politics were not typical of the average American woman, and she deliberately hid them from the public for quite some time.
Another Leftist who downplayed her Leftist roots was Gloria Steinem. She weathered criticism from the Left when her CIA backing was revealed. The link is to a friend's page on Freethought. Dr. Singh is CWRU Physics professor, born in Sri Lanka, who has been associated with teacher education for decades. He is a moderate, politically and socially, neither Conservative nor Leftist.
Many who want a return to a country that is not aggressively ruled by non-elected people with no real stake in the organization they are inserting themselves into, are often accused of "wanting to return the USA to Jim Crow". That is a malicious and completely wrong interpretation of the sentiment. The presence of Neo-Nazis in many non-Leftist public actions is taken by those accusing their opponents, as EVIDENCE of rampant Fascist activity.
Face it - SOME of those uniformed people are idiots. Just low-IQ people who are captivated by the opportunity to strut around in the "Bad Guys" uniforms. They are no more Nazis in fact than Prince Harry, who put on a Nazi Halloween costume was. Just dumba$$es who liked to preen before a mirror, posing as a tough guy.
SOME of them are FBI informers, currying favor with the Feebs by egging other, dumber participants to more and more outrageous acts, in a effort to keep their subsidized gig going. Some prod and nudge the clueless to go along with criminal acts; the Michigan 'plot' to kidnap the governor, was one such activity - which, a jury decided, would not have happened without some serious pressure AND procurement of tools to commit the crime by the FBI. So, they acquitted the accused, confident that they were basically not dangerous.
And a few many even sympathicize with Fascists. Which, in America, is actually NOT a crime by itself.
One pernicious ideology is the concept of Stakeholders, person/organizations without a serious financial committment (other than perhaps a stock share) nor any legal interest in a company or organization, who, nonetheless, wants veto power over corporate decisions. What Stakeholders are, generally, is buttinskies or bystanders who want to tell others what they should do.
Stakeholders are deeply embedded in European countries, both in and independent of government. Their presence (as demonstrated in the above link) has contributed heavily to the oppressive taxation that - along with unregulated immigration - is bringing those EU countries to the edge of bankruptcy.
One book that was highly influential when it was written is Aborting America, by Dr. Bernard Nathanson, one of the early promoters of abortion reform, who personally aborted over 60,000 babies in his career, before having a change of heart, and becoming an active proponent of abortion restrictions.
Funnily (OK, NOT so funnily), his book is NOT available in ebook format, nor are reasonably priced used copies available. Why, it's ALMOST as though there was a conspiracy to keep this book unavailable to the public. There are (a handful) of books for sale (both hardcover and paperback), but they are priced at HUNDREDS of dollars per book. And, yet, despite many inquiries, the publishers are completely uninterested in issuing a reprint in e-format.
Curious, isn't it?
That book is only available for hundreds of dollars; if you are lucky enough to find it in libraries, I highly recommend checking it out.
