I found the tone to be pretty condescending in parts, and also had difficulty trying to assess what point was being made (the only clue I had was from the section titles). If we were supposed to feel hopeful at the end, I certainly wasn’t.

Basically this book taught me about the widespread use of shock tactics by dirty politicians, where they exploit the immediate public shock following a tragic event to force in their policies and make a change to suit their agenda because everyone is too busy being shocked by the event to focus on anything else, and how Trump thrives off these shock tactics. Klein's solution is immediate widespread solidarity of the people to the threat.

Really great. Highlights the intersectionality of all the things that have occurred to get to a societal point of where the United States is (relatively recent), some ways to see the system as a whole. Most inspiring and the call to action was to come up with a plan to say yes to, thinking of what the preferred big future could be and saying yes towards that (with a clear plan). More and more inspiring, encouraging, and needed coming to the close of the book.
