Naomi Klein is a Canadian author, social activist, and filmmaker known for her political analyses and criticism of corporate globalization and capitalism. She became known internationally for her alter-globalization book "No Logo" (1999) and "The Take" (2004), a documentary about Argentina's occupied factories (written by her and directed by her husband Avi Lewis) and especially "The Shock Doctrine"" (2007), a widely acclaimed analysis of the history of neoliberal economics. Her analyses concentrated on what was above the waterline, and never addressed deep political matters. In the 2020s she was vociferously challenging those who were questioning the ever shifting official narratives about COVID-19.
Opinions
Naomi Klein has never had much to say about false flag attacks such as 9-11. In December 2020 she explain the Great Reset as follows:
“In short, the Great Reset encompasses some good stuff that won’t happen and some bad stuff that certainly will and, frankly, nothing out of the ordinary in our era of “green” billionaires readying rockets for Mars. [...] And yet search for the term “global reset” and you will be bombarded with breathless “exposés” of a secret globalist cabal, headed by Schwab and Bill Gates, that is using the state of shock created by the coronavirus (which is probably itself a “hoax”) to turn the world into a high-tech dictatorship that will take away your freedom forever: a green/socialist/Venezuela/Soros/forced vaccine dictatorship if the Reset exposé is coming from the far right, and a Big Pharma/GMO/biometric implants/5G/robot dog/forced vaccine dictatorship if the exposé hails from the far left.”
Naomi Klein (8 December 2020) [1]
Publications
- 2022 - Doppelganger: A Trip Into the Mirror World, an extended hit piece on Naomi Wolf in which, writes Christian Parenti, "Wolf becomes a stand-in for all deviations from the party line on Covid. Hence, Wolf serves as a strawman, allowing Klein to dismiss more reasonable criticisms by association."[2] Geoff Olson opines that it is not "an absolutely terrible book – just one that’s deeply wrong in key areas... In the hundreds of notes at the end of the book, there are CDC and WHO releases and a smattering of citations to refereed scientific journals. The vast bulk of the references are to mainstream media ‘fact-checked’ sources, in a Möbius strip of manufactured consent.".[3]
A Quote by Naomi Klein
| Page | Quote | Date | Source |
|---|---|---|---|
| Mind control | “When torture is covertly practiced but officially and legally repudiated, there is still hope that if atrocities are exposed, justice could prevail. When torture is pseudo-legal and those responsible deny that it is torture, what dies is what Hannah Arendt called "the juridical person in man".” | 2005 | The Guardian, The US has used torture for decades. All that's new is the openness about it |
