Before Naomi Klein published The Shock Doctrine, the 9/11 Truth
community was connecting the dots.

I saw it because I was reading everything I could find on the subject
for a talk at the Chicago 2006 9/11 conference. The talk began with
defense mechanisms and how people resist the truth, then got into
shock, starting with work by I. P. Pavlov.

You can get some idea from the slides, starting with #49.

There is a constellation, including

9/11, PATRIOT Act, Homeland Security formed, wire-tapping, torture
U.S. credit collapse, foreclosures, the bail-out
PTSD, shock and awe, victims of war anywhere
economic shock therapy dating back to Pinochet-Friedman era in Chile

Understanding the mechanisms of shock prepares us for the future.
Information, solidarity, compassion, and clarity are needed more than
ever.

There's a very good short film done after The Shock Doctrine came out.
