How come Naomi Klein never mentions this in relation to disaster
capitalism? Seems like having a positive side to disasters is
infrequently talked about.
Interesting about Gilligan's Island vs. Lord of the Flies. Never thought
about that.
This quote:
...elites perceive a threat from out-of-control and unruly
âmobs,â so create a myth of
social panic that shapes their actions, and they panic as a result. Elite
panic reinforces an assumption that human nature is greedy and
animalistic, and an upending of their social order can only lead to
chaos.
makes me think that this is a good excuse to not listen to single
authorities which command large numbers of people.
These set of articles makes me think that conducting a series of workshops
for this stuff would be the most useful way to learn it. Just reading it
may not stick.
