Naomi Klein on her "Doppelganger" and navigating the far-right mirror universe | Salon Talks

“No Logo” and “This Changes Everything Author” Naomi Klein shares what she learned about American politics and right-wing conspiracy culture while writing “Doppelganger: A Trip Into the Mirror World.” After being mistaken for her own right-wing doppelganger for years, Klein began her investigation into what drives the right and the phenomenon of political doppelgangers. “You have somebody like RFK whose whole campaign is like a weird doppelganger of Bernie's campaign in the sense that he's actually quite good at naming corporate capture of regulatory agencies and taking on the military industrial complex,” she told Salon.

The author and journalist shares why she believes it is important to pay attention to people like Tucker Carlson, Steve Bannon and Naomi Wolf and reveals the way that they are able to control the issues the left talks about. “When something becomes an issue in what I call the mirror world, it then becomes untouchable in our world,” she said. “Once they say it, then we have to just do the opposite.”
