reflective
I’m torn on this one.
On the one hand, this was a great case study in shock doctrine, disaster capitalism (two concepts coined by Klein), and neoliberal exploitation by the US government and American private sector in the context of hurricane Maria in Puerto Rico.
On the other hand, whenever I read Klein discussing local resistance movements I feel like I need a romanticism-to-regular language translator in my brain. Some people love how oo-woo her language can be, though—so make of that what you will.
