I have said it before, but find it so hard to understand why #NaomiKlein does not use her clout to help people move away from what is simply yet another proprietary platform trap (Substack).
It stands in such contrast with her analysis of the world, and the practical, community building politics that (I think) she stands for.
I understand you cannot be on top of every latest development in every field, but doesn't she have people around her who can guide her? @avilewis ?

"Upcoming Event
*End Times Fascism*: Naomi Klein and Astra Taylor in conversation with Jia Tolentino
Tuesday
September 15, 2026Join Jewish Currents and Books Are Magic on Tuesday, September 15th at 7 pm at St. Anne’s Church in Brooklyn for a conversation with authors Naomi Klein and Astra Taylor on their new book *End Times Fascism*, moderated by New Yorker writer Jia Tolentino.
As the planet burns and shared reality melts, a new iteration of the far right is on the march. How can we understand this dangerous development, and what resources can we draw on to resist it? In their scathing assessment of the contemporary scene, the celebrated activists and authors Naomi Klein and Astra Taylor explore how the religious fundamentalists, Silicon Valley technologists, and ethno-nationalists who make up this apocalyptic alliance share more than one might think: they are united in their belief that some kind of cleansing cataclysm is coming, whether through the manifestation of messianic prophecy, the rampages of a resource-and job-consuming artificial intelligence, or the purported existential threat of immigration and cultural replacement. Rather than avoiding this conflagration, they welcome it, convinced they will be among the saved on the other side.
'End times fascism' is the ideology of the actors who strive to make the world unlivable and then seek to protect themselves from the fallout. The new survivalists have accumulated power, but they are far from impregnable. As Klein and Taylor show in *End Times Fascism* via original reporting and analysis, the many internal conflicts and contradictions and the nihilistic inability to envision a shared future, even for ostensible allies, leave these survivalists vulnerable to a new kind of 'pro-life' politics rooted in reverence for our shared existence and regard for the earth we inhabit and must protect.
This event will take place in-person at St. Ann & the Holy Trinity Church, located at 157 Montague St, Brooklyn, NY. A free livestream will be available at this link. Books will be available for purchase at the event, where a signing will follow the talk."

What happens when you realise a crisis isn’t always treated as a tragedy? Book review: The Shock Doctrine
I finished The Shock Doctrine by Naomi Klein and immediately had the uncomfortable experience of wanting to recommend a book that made me deeply uncomfortable.
I don’t believe in every argument Naomi makes; however, I wanted to recommend it because, whether you agree with her or not, she definitely changes the way you look at the world once finished and surely that’s a book worthwhile.
Published in 2007, the book explores a simple but unsettling idea that moments of collective crisis, whether natural disasters, wars, financial collapse or political upheaval, often create opportunities to push through economic policies that would ordinarily face far greater resistance.
Sinister, I know. Naomi traces this argument across decades and continents, weaving together economics, politics and history into a narrative that’s equal parts investigative journalism and historical analysis. She moves from Chile under Augusto Pinochet to post-Soviet Russia, the invasion of Iraq, Hurricane Katrina and the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami, arguing that each crisis became an opportunity for sweeping political and economic change.
Reading it felt like watching hundreds of seemingly unrelated events slowly click together like pieces of a jigsaw puzzle.
Whether that pattern convinces you is almost secondary. The real value of the book lies in the questions it leaves behind…
Who benefits from crisis, who decides what recovery looks like and who exactly are we rebuilding for?
I found myself thinking whilst reading the hurricane Katrina chapter (one of the many crises mentioned in the book) how we often describe events as inevitable, as though history simply unfolded on its own. Klein makes you question the opposite as she asks us to consider who made decisions in the background, who held power and who profited from moments when everyone else was distracted by survival.
It’s a perspective I don’t think I’ll easily shake moving forward, especially as someone studying health science. I couldn’t help but draw parallels with public health.
Despite it being the most uncomfortable reading experience of 2026 thus far, I have to rate it ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I tried to read it without annotating to much on my first pass as I suspect I’ll revisit this repeatedly over the years underlining sentences and adding thoughts.
Would I recommend it?
Yes, with one caveat. Read it as an argument to interrogate rather than form a solid conclusion. And definitely follow the footnotes and additional research in the back for a comprehensive overview of what Naomi is talking about.
Who is this for?
I think readers interested in political economy, history and public policy will get the most from it. That said, don’t let the subject matter put you off. Klein writes in an accessible, engaging style and despite its length and extensive footnotes, I found it surprisingly easy to read.

DemocracyNow reporting on a AI generated argument between Sam Altman and Naomi Klein is where we are now.
The internet is increasingly LLM content, and because it's so much easier to generate soon it will be, or maybe already is, the majority. That will discourage actual content creators to create and readers to read, advertisers to advertise and hosters to host. This is the path to the dead internet. -

"Considerations must also be made with the possibility in mind that AI investments have created a bubble. Both in terms of a technical bubble, where technology does not function well enough to deliver the value claimed, and an economic bubble, where investors lose faith in AI companies and pull capital as investing becomes unsustainable."
But then immediately goes on to list mediations for the deployment of a tech they themselves admit IT DOESNT WORK.
I love how they ALL sidestep that 'innocuous' observation, oh and by the way, not unlike #NaomiKlein dismissing #ThomasPiketty as a fringe kook in two phrases scattered in her book.
Then again, perhaps, like me and John Cage, they are actually eager to smash The System? Perhaps I should enthusiastically endorse them.

"Digital Doppelgangers": Naomi Klein Corrects the Record on Viral AI-Generated Quote
(short interview)
During Thursday’s live show, we shared a quote from author Naomi Klein that we later discovered was AI-generated. Klein has written about the fake quote and on her Substack, and joins Democracy Now! to discuss the growing difficulty of verifying oline information.
“These companies are creating digital doppelgangers of us, trying to monetize our identities,” says Klein. “One wonders how we’re ever going to get out of this house of mirrors unless companies are forced to label AI-generated work.”

@LoboTom Même sentiment à l'époque mais je me juge moins aujourd'hui. Lui, comme beaucoup d'autres, a été poussé dans ses retranchements. Son anti #sionisme l'a mis au banc des accusés, alors que sur le fond il n'avait pas 100% tort (de ce que j'en comprends, le sionisme est une branche du #judaïsme plus à droite qui a annihilé quasi totalement les autres plus "progressistes"). Cette bascule #NaomiKlein, juive de "gauche", l'explique dans son livre " Le double: voyage dans le monde miroir"

"Terry Newman: Naomi Klein: From *No Logos* to Nazis
Klein apologized for praising alleged rapist, but left out his Nazi tattoo
Last Tuesday, Canadian author, documentarian and activist Naomi Klein admitted on Bluesky that she 'truly f—ked up' for not doing her 'due diligence' on Graham Platner, who recently won the Democratic U.S. Senate nomination in Maine, before she praised him as an 'extraordinary political communicator' in March.
Klein’s apology followed last Monday’s publication of Politico’s interview with Jenny Racicot, a 41-year-old woman who accused Platner of forcing her to have sex with him five years ago, after she objected.
(. . .)In her post on last Tuesday, Klein admitted that, 'Enough was out there at the time,' and that she 'should have been more cautious,' while apologizing to women 'who came forward only to be disbelieved and smeared.' This mistake, she wrote, 'gutted' her.
What Klein failed to mention was that months before she praised Planter, he admitted on a podcast that he had a Nazi SS emblem tattooed on his chest.
(. . .)
After *No Logo* became an international bestseller, Klein, who married Avi Lewis, now leader of the NDP, in 1998, published more books, becoming a lifelong professional activist.
Klein’s activism, which began with spunky culture jamming — rewriting corporate ads in order to critique companies — has grown increasingly hopeless and dark. It includes climate alarmism, austerity activism and her upcoming co-authored book, *End Times Fascism*.'
Like Lewis, Klein is also a vocal anti-Zionist and suggested in an interview with Democracy Now last year that Israel weaponized October 7 trauma to justify 'genocide' in Gaza.
One thing’s for sure — Klein has come a long way from 'handing out little cutting tools to allow people to cut designer labels off their clothes' at a New York *No Logo* book promotion."
