Something that is paradoxical about the collapse we are experiencing is that the forces that dominate global movements of goods and money depend on periodic collapse in order to retain control even though collapse appears to destroy everything and be good for no one.

The fact that the global economy can come screeching to a halt in days is in some ways a reflection of how much collective wealth we have built together as a planet, but importantly in other ways it expresses how dictators and authoritarians retain control over our lives so easily with how they have designed the global economy, it only takes a handful of days of oil supply to be messed up for ruthless dictators to become existentially empowered to control our wellbeing.

To the dictators and leaders in power right now telling us they will heroically save the global economy by manipulating their levers of control over the flow of oil to markets, the rise of alternative, green energy is a direct, military threat to their power precisely because of the stability and decentralization green energy brings.

Naomi Klein is the necessary touchstone here with her amazing book The Shock Doctrine.
