Supplementary #NewspaperUKBrdshtTheGuardianWilliamDavies "There is a well-known 'horseshoe' theory of political sentiment, which suggests that as ideologies become more polarised along a left-right axis, so they become more alike on a liberal-authoritarian one. This was a useful prop for centrists of the mid-20th century, who sought to portray themselves as the first line of defence against the gulag. Today, things are far more complicated than these simple axes of left-right and liberal-authoritarian imply. The problem in the age of big tech, the climate crisis, Covid lockdowns, online influencers and collapsed trust in 'mainstream' politics and media is that everybody has their suspicions that they are being lied to and manipulated - and they're right. Where they disagree is on the identity of the liars and the purpose of the manipulation. The rhetoric of critique and liberation has become ubiquitous, no longer serving to distinguish left from right, truth from falsehood. Virtually everyone now wants to unmask the elites and decode their messaging in one way or another. For leftist critics such as Naomi Klein, who made their names in a simpler pre-Trump, pre-YouTube age, this provokes an identity crisis. The premise of Doppelganger is so unlikely as to be almost absurd: Naomi Klein has spent several years being mistaken for the feminist turned conspiracy theorist Naomi Wolf, and has chosen to write a book about this. Both Naomis are Jewish women, who rose to fame on the back of unexpected polemical blockbusters, No Logo and The Beauty Myth respectively. Klein offers plenty of examples of how the confusion manifests itself, especially online, and of how it has troubled her at various points in her life, particularly during the pandemic, when Wolf's celebrity as a lockdown and vaccine sceptic soared. You may well wonder how such a faintly comical theme can be extended for 350 pages, and what it has to do with Klein's usual preoccupations of combating corporate capitalism and climate crisis. It is certainly the most introspective and whimsical of Klein's books to date, but it is also one of surprising insights, unexpected connections and great subtlety. The Klein/Wolf confusion is an entry point to consider wider forms of disorientation that afflict the left, in particular the loss of its monopoly (if it ever had one) over the language of political resistance, and how, in the process, that language has lost its grip on the world." https://www.theguardian.com/books/2023/sep/09/doppelganger-a-trip-into-the-mirror-world-by-naomi-klein-review-a-case-of-mistaken-identity #MetaphorSpatialMirrorReflection #MetaphorSpatialMirrorworldDoppelganger #IRLAuthorNaomiKlein #IRLAuthorNaomiWolf #ConspiracyTheory_COVID19Vaccine #2003_IraqWarConflictInvasion #IRLIdeologueStephenYaxleyLennonAKATommyRobinson #TheoryHorseshoe #1999_NoLogo #1991_TheBeautyMyth

Supplementary "Joseph P. Overton introduced the concept in the 1990s as an executive at the Mackinac Center for Public Policy, a conservative think tank in Michigan. ... Mr. Overton just wanted to explain to potential donors what the point of a think tank was, so he created a brochure with a cardboard slider. The brochure listed the range of possible policies on a single issue, from least to most government intervention. On education -- an example the Mackinac Center uses -- it might run from zero public investment in education to compulsory indoctrination in government schools. But neither of those extremes is going to happen. Only part of the range is achievable, and when Mr. Overton moved his slider, different policies fell into what he called the window of political possibility" https://www.nytimes.com/2019/02/26/us/politics/overton-window-democrats.html #AdvocacyUSMackinacCenterForPublicPolicy
