Adam Curtis: The Trap (2007)

The series consists of three 60-minute programmes which explore the modern concept and definition of freedom, specifically, "how a simplistic model of human beings as self-seeking, almost robotic, creatures led to today's idea of freedom."

@Bunkunin Like the UK and other countries, right-wing governments have used the crisis of the shock created by the pandemic to increase of the public system.

It's classic stuff.

Been reminded that someone uploaded an audiobook of my first book Shock Doctrine of the Left using a Stephen Hawking-esque computerised voice, if you wanted a weird way to read it

It's on and / basically!

(There's some diagrams in the last chapter which I dont think are included, just so you know)

People here might also be interested in my first book The Shock Doctrine of the Left, which combined leftist / social movement activism with complex systems theory. Its much shorter and doesn't include the spirituality angle of my current projects, but it's otherwise of a piece!

's SOP in crises. Vulture conservatives prove David Frum was right: when they realize they can't get elected democratically, they won't reject conservatism; they'll reject democracy. Crises provide cover for all kinds of things.

Hey, speaking of which, remember that time made it virtually impossible to sue the Ontario gov't for dereliction of duty etc? No? That's because he buried it in a ginormous Omnibus Bill & rammed it thru the Legislature:

@crowgirl Look up when you get a chance: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Shoc

and his rw neolib privatization agenda need healthcare & education systems broken so they can then point to the underfunded wreckage as "proof publicly owned systems don't work, so we simply *must privatize!!".
The exploitation of pandemic fallout is deliberate. They NEED overflowing hospitals & distraught parents screaming 4 action. That action won't be to put stolen $4B back into HC system & re-fund it.

'Coupled with Ukraine’s endemic corruption, these policies led to the profitable looting of state assets by the corrupt ruling class, and to falling living standards and austerity measures for everybody else. The post-coup government upheld Poland as its model, but the reality was closer to Yeltsin’s Russia... After a nearly 25% fall in GDP between 2012 and 2016, Ukraine is still the poorest country in Europe. '
