Her own audience accused Klein of betraying her own shock-doctrine analysis

Evidence

Watching this, I felt like she had taken my ideas, fed them into a bonkers blender, and then shared the thought-puree with Carlson, who nodded vehemently. All the while, Wolf’s followers hounded me about why I had sold out to the “globalists” and was duping the public into believing that masks, vaccines, and restrictions on indoor gatherings were legitimate public health measures—as opposed to a pretext for a worldwide shock doctrine, of the kind I had warned about in my books. “I think she’s been got at!” someone whose handle is “RickyBaby321” said of me, telling Wolf, “I have relegated Naomi Klein to the position of being: ‘The Other Naomi’!” It’s a vertiginous thing to be harangued on social media about your alleged misunderstanding of your own ideas—while being told that another Naomi is a better version of you than you are. — Naomi Klein, Doppelganger, 109

Categorization

• XREF: Directly serves the reader’s stated purpose: this is the doubling device in operation — the accusation of misunderstanding one’s own ideas is the instrument of the analysis.
• QUESTION: Is the vertiginous confusion itself the analytic payoff, or does Klein need a more determinate subject-object split for the later political chapters to land?
