    It’s becoming increasingly clear that they know exactly how much what they’re doing is going to hurt and terrorize people, and that they’re “flooding the zone with shit” to keep people off balance and terrified.

    I said it the other day and I am going to say it again. Naomi Klein’s Shock Doctrine matters here. This is the last of the tools of the Iraq War come home to the US. This is Trump’s “Shock and Awe” campaign directed at American citizens. He is trying to shock us into confusion and submission, and when I say “he” I rather mean the architects of Project 2025.

    A short film about the book featuring author Naomi Klein.

    Shock wears off, and if you know what’s happening, you can help prevent shock.

      This is off-topic, but I recently found out that Naomi Klein has a book called Doppelganger all about how she is constantly mistaken for Naomi Wolf and what a fuckhead Naomi Wolf is. I need to get a copy.
