1/3 “book, Doppelganger: A Trip Into the Mirror World, leftist public intellectual Naomi Klein argues that the phenomenon of “doubling”—of the self or a collective, whether adopted or imposed—shapes the politics of our time. Klein’s frequent confusion with the feminist-writer-turned-Covid-conspiracy-theorist Naomi Wolf provides the jumping-off point for journey thru internet culture, vaccine conspiracism, the wellness world, eugenics, & contemporary dynamics around settler colonial denialism…”

2/3 “The book culminates in an extended discussion of Israel/Palestine, which Klein reveals to be a potent site of such “doppelganger politics,” as the scholar Caroline Rooney has put it, in which Israel has created its own “double” of the European nationalism that has oppressed so many Jews, and which allows it to project everything it cannot bear to see about itself onto the Palestinian Other.”

3/3 “In this episode of On the Nose, editor-in-chief Arielle Angel speaks with Klein about her book and its relation to the present crisis: How can the figure of the doppelganger help us understand the long history that is erupting in the present—both the Holocaust and the Nakba—in ways that can move us toward justice and solidarity? And how can the left adequately respond to this moment—on campus, on the page, and in the streets?”ESSENTIAL LISTENING https://jewishcurrents.org/naomi-klein-on-israels-doppelganger-politics

Please drop “Judeo-Christian” —they are not the same belief system. Different liturgy, different holidays, different ways of organizing and arguing meaning. The term comes from Christian culture and it serves to assimilate Judaism and break it down in Christianity’s stomach acid. It’s also used rhetorically in Christian culture to create a wedge between Jewish people and Muslim people.
