Drive changes, voters. Before it's too late (and that time is precariously close!)

It's bigger than Wall Street.
AnotherReplyToIgnore
Sure, but to think that the 99% isn't just as greedy simply because they're poor shows no real understanding of why this even happens.

Tbf, neurotyicals do often act rather irrationally

I have a lot of respect for this man, but that's a lot of words for something that's fucking obvious :p

Wall Street has literally been hurting people since it's creation.

Chomsky lost his mind during covid. Guy needs to go to bed.
15awilso9000
What did he say in the past few years that makes you think that?
FourLegsGood
Or maybe you did. How can you know for sure?
Escape2Fantasy
Post what Chomsky says about this current Ukraine situation. Don't cherry pick his lines.
15awilso9000
US backs 2014 coup, Rus invades Crimea. Rus and China form new "axis." The west forms AUKUS, the Quad and Five Eyes to counter the threat.

Noam Chomsky is a genocide denying fascist apologist. Fuck him.
15awilso9000
Hey dude, maybe if you'd not commented we wouldn't realise how dumb you are. Go read up on him, he's not a denier
MrJwinkyface
I’m not super familiar with him, can you cite an example of this?
MrJwinkyface
I really wish he would have not thrown a fit and sat down to have a civil conversation with Sam Harris. It would have been great.

Is it just me or is that text extremely hard to read?
EDaddy
He was an apologist for Slobodan Milosevic who supported the genocidaires in Bosnia. Good linguist, though.
merdock379
No he wasn’t lol. What a shit take.
ShiftyEyeBlowjob
Noam Chomsky has great clarity on global politics. From what I understand he was on Tv/radio often in Ireland. Hardly never in U.S.
xXxSTEVOxXx
It's because he exposed the collusion of the American media and the state in Manufacturing Consent and now he's blacklisted. Cuz murica
ShiftyEyeBlowjob
That's how I understand it.
Pheehelm
Less great when it came to the Cambodian genocide, though.
15awilso9000
Because he understands genocide has multiple "acts" whereas a massacre is a single incident? He is the classic *technically correct* dude
xXxSTEVOxXx
Too few people in America know the name Noam Chomsky and it fucking shows.
Noraneko
He is the man! Linguist and mathematician ❤️
RainbowAmoeba
To quote Gilmore Girls: “To Noam is to love him”
thatsmyfetish69
Agreed. He’s warned the population for 40 years and only a few of us listened
reineseele
they couldnt even decide to get a better solution in but decided: Nahhh same old same old. (Biden over Sanders)
15awilso9000
Tbf the DNC screwed Sanders over, which was probably the bigger factor

People here seem to respond better to images than links:
hoopsnek
This one is great:
Wozzup
People can bitch and moan all they like about old mate chomsky, but the propaganda model him and wosname put together remains good fucking..
xXxSTEVOxXx
Before this thread I had never seen someone attempt to criticize him. And today I've never seen anyone do it convincingly. Unassailable imo
Wozzup
Scholarly work. Reading an updated copy of manufacturing consent is great for the foreword alone in which they basically just say "see!! ...
Wozzup
We fucking told you this would happen and was happening."
Wozzup
.....Herman....
xXxSTEVOxXx
I literally have to stand up and look at the spine of my copy of Manufacturing Consent *every* *single* *time* lmaoooo
Aimlockbelch
Smartest man on the planet. Prove me wrong.
MercyMei
He denies the Serbian Genocide because he’s a member of the Old Left and refuses to hold leftist regimes accountable.
MercyMei
He’s a good linguist and decent commentator, but his popularity outside the US is limited, and rather negative in Europe.
MercyMei
He also denied the Cambodian Genocide because again, he refuses to hold Leftist regimes accountable.
hoopsnek
xXxSTEVOxXx
Hell yeah fuckin right you are!! Also. Have you ever googled Murray Bookchin?
hoopsnek
No, thanks for the heads up.
xXxSTEVOxXx
Murray is the man.

Good read https://truthout.org/articles/noam-chomsky-a-no-fly-zone-over-ukraine-could-unleash-untold-violence/
hoopsnek
Great article. Thanks.
frankierizzo0351
Thanks for that, very intresting read, really gives you a lot to consider.
hoopsnek
Yeah, calling for a no fly zone is literally asking for WW3.
Moriarte
Wtf? How do you make that massive jump in logic?
Arbitrarynamehere
It isn't literally asking for WW3. It's literally what's being threatened, but that isn't the same thing.
hoopsnek
It means a hot war attacking Russian aircraft, radar and AA in Russia. Which they’ll retaliate to in an ever escalating and expanding war.
Arbitrarynamehere
Or not if the line is drawn at pushing them out of Ukraine. They counted on no NATO involvement. It is more than possible they'll back down
Codybill
Would that be Noam Chomsky genocide denier, https://bgdw.wordpress.com/2009/03/07/bosnian-genocide-denier-noam-chomsky/
15awilso9000
Lol not sure an article calling The Guardian "spineless" is giving a fair assessment of the facts
Codybill
And https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cambodian_genocide_denial
Codybill
In Distortions at Fourth Hand Chomsky and Herman assure us that anything wrong in Cambodia was the fault of the USA,
15awilso9000
Your links explain how Chomsky is in fact not a genocide denier, but his nuance often leads people to see him this way
Codybill
Read the provided material then comment
15awilso9000
Uh, yeah that's what I already did... Did you even read those links? Cos it you appears you're disagreeing with those sources
Codybill
Don't worry he claims the Bosnian genocide never happened as well as the Cambodian genocide.
15awilso9000
Uh... Yeah that's factually inaccurate
