I am having a much easier time reaching libs. People are now more receptive to organizing, even if I have to cloak it in disaster prep or grillpill
They are comfortable, which allows them to have their views. That comfort is going to be rocked for many people over the next few years that will ripen them up for radicalization.
Read A Paradise Built In Hell by Rebecca Solnit. Here's a decent overview, but I recommend the whole book. It is the complement of The Shock Doctrine, but critiques the 'helplessness' that Naomi Klein describes by showing that people aren't nearly the doormat Shock Doctrine policy assumes. The central idea is we, as a species and as instinct, come together during times of catastrophe, both natural disasters as well as human-caused like war. The more intense or complete the disaster, the greater the phenomenon shows up. She also analyzes cases where this phenomenon doesn't arise and why; the section on the Spanish Flu is prophetic of the COVID response a decade after publication. The whole section on Elite Panic is a necessary counter-propaganda against modern media, calling out the pervasive anti-humanism throughout Hollywood that assumes people will panic in the face of disaster. It is completely false and a mirror for how the Elite view the populace, driving so many regressive disaster responses by the State. If nothing else, this book will dispel a kind of Doomer Propaganda that is pervasive.
