Probably will devolve into /pol/ shit, but thoughts on this book? I just read it and it’s quite shocking to say the least
Naomi Klein
Well researched and informed, I think more people should read it to know what's really going on. Be sure to check out the follow up This Changes Everything.
/Pol/ tards will deride this thread simply by doing (((Klein)))
That's ridiculous. *klein* is a German surname, so she could be a shiksa for all we know
Would honestly feel embarrassed having something like this on my shelf
It looks like flashy, lowest-common denominator clickbait in book form
Why are so many non-fiction books like this?

Vapid
She’s such a boring thinker
I haven't read it, do you wanna give me the basic gestalt? What does she argue for?
Naomi Klein is a jewess with a strong jewish identity, and a jewish husband. Yet, she is against identity among europeans, and is doing all she can to impose extreme individualism and the destruction of group cohesion on them.
Why would you care about an obvious hypocrite who's strongly opposed to your people?
I haven't read it either, but I've seen the basic ideas laid out a few times, I believe. Klein basically says that the standard operating procedure of neoliberalism and globalized capitalism is now to use huge crises, either naturally occurring or manufactured, to push through radical change, usually something that enriches management at the expense of labor and takes away freedoms. Her big example of this was all the surveillance laws passed directly after 9/11, and also the aggressive gentrification of New Orleans that took place after Hurricane Katrina.
>That's ridiculous. *klein* is a German surname, so she could be a shiksa for all we know
That is 100% true, however:
>There is name for Jews like me. I am called a “self hating Jew.” You see, Jews are not allowed to dislike other Jews, to disapprove of mainstream diaspora opinions, or to criticize Israeli policy in anything other than a strictly Jewish forum, without being accused of self hatred."
I still do not trust her. They always play both sides of the fence - even anti-Semitism.
