Amazing insights from a renowned investigative journalist.
Naomi Klein spends much time researching her books and writes in a readable format. I read her book entitled “Shock Doctrine” in 2007 which I found historically enlightening about events in the news during that era. It described a devious strategy that is used by governments to install unpleasant policies. That book sold me on her as an author, and this book was very incisive about occurrences we all experience but do not understand as well as she interprets them.
Excellent
This is a very good book, for anyone seeking to have some idea as to the doppelgangers world, which the very word itself can be translated as double walker or shadow. I would suggest reading it along with Naomi Wolf’s book: The Bodies of Others: The New Authoritarians, COVID-19 and The War Against the Human. I think Naomi Wolf’s book is excellent, and ironically speaks in many ways for me about the dark mirror world, or shadow world, in some ways better then Naomi Klein’s book. That is why I recommend , that both books be read together.Also, when Naomi Wolf discusses the Chinese topic that Naomi klein is critical of…Naomi Klein is discussing a real mindset that has been going in the US, all the way from the time from Second World War, and the fear of Asians. I personally think those fears were unjustified back in the day…but it did, and does still factor into how many view the world. A time when America was in some ways described by authors as like a dark carnival of distorting mirrors. Described by books like, Dark Carnivals: Modern Horror and the Origins of American Empire.But, Naomi Klein’s book is superior in many ways for me such as it comes out and calls a doppelganger for what it is, from the doppleganger point of view, something I found very useful. It’s too bad both Naomis had, they not the first same name… that maybe created the doppelganger to begin with….rather they might have written a book together.I started thinking about the doppelganger in my life, and, the difficulty I had in knowing that my doppelganger actually exists…. and also that it is in many ways quite a dark and ugly satanic doppleganger masked as a fellow double… only gets more violent when it senses that I know of its existence. In other words, the doppelganger I have experienced thrives on violence. while I am peace loving, and wish that all the world would live in peace and love.I understand how Naomi Klein would feel so threatened by Naomi Wolf’s amigos, in the right, perhaps even to the point of Ms. Klein writing a book about it.My doppelganger is more deep state so to speak, in that it would use any person, group, or thing to further its own ends.
Reflections Can Reveal So Much
Do you ever feel like you have a double- another person who gets mistaken for you, even though you may have little in common? Do you feel that the recent actions of conspiracy theorists and other peddlers of misinformation often include what seem like contradictory positions and that they often make hypocritical statements? If any of these things intrigue you, then you might want to read Doppelganger.What this book presents isnât easy to put into words and once I finished reading, I found that I had a tough time putting together a short summary that accurately described the bookâs focus. The reason is because the book shifts and reflects from many angles. It discusses the authorâs own doppelganger, someone who happens to be a fellow author with the same first name. The book also discusses historical occurrences, how history repeats itself, and how perpetrators of evil so often defend themselves and criticize their opponents in hypocritical ways. And the book also devotes time, whenever possible, to push the acceptance and support of progressive causes, whether itâs climate change, economic reforms, etc.The references to the other Naomi, otherwise known to the world as Naomi Wolf, are a constant throughout the read. I am somewhat familiar with ms. Wolf and her zany, conspiratorial stands in recent years. But I now know more about her than before, thanks to this book. In many ways, I came away from this reading knowing more about other Naomi than I did the author herself. That isnât necessarily a bad thing, as it was good to become more familiar with Wolf and some of the outrageous ideas she supposedly believes.I like the writing in this book. It is clear, concise, intelligent, and well- edited. I also like how the author, through her examination of other Naomi, came away knowing a little more about herself. Her decision to write this book and the research that went into it was no mere exercise in futility. From cross- examining the tactics used by other Naomi and those like her, the author came away with a better understanding of herself and this helped her grow as a person.Personally, I donât have any doppelgangers of my own that come to mind. However, there is much more to this book than discovering your personal double, whether good or evil. This book is about so much more, and it serves as an insightful guide for those who want to know a little more about the mirror world and its place in history and the lessons that can be learned from studying those on the other side. In the meantime, who knows? You may come away from this book discovering new things about yourself. And that alone makes it worth the read.
Naomi Klein has produced a thoroughly researched, well-written, analysis of the terrible threats faced by democracy and what makes us human.
The best of Klein’s books, self-reflective and at last serious about the psychic and aesthetic dimensions of our global predicament
Naomi Klein nos instiga à refletir sobre o que nos tornamos nesses tempos de escuridão da racionalidade, da faltam de empatia, nos colocarmos na posição do outro, nos avaliarmos em nossas decisões, formas de relacionamento.
This book opened my eyes to the world while reinforcing things I have already seen, experienced, and witnessed, like sovereign citizens, Q-Anon, anti-vaxxers and autism. It made me think, and now I want to send a copy to all my anti-vaxxer, conspiracy theorising relatives, friends, and acquaintances. Phenomenal
Muy interesante y actual visto de una persona que la han hecho un doble sin saberlo
