@Hum Shak : To say _"the U.S. people"_ when you claim anything other than they are people, means you will always be wrong. We are a people, who like any and all other nations, are myriad in our beliefs and actions. Would you send all of the people in your city to prison because one or even many of them are murderers? Sure, there are a huge number of illiterate and ignorant people in our country who vote for the likes of trump, but not even all of them are bad people. I live in a rural county now in California (to my dismay, because many here are unfriendly at best), but out of my closest neighbors, the 2 left wing are some of the worst neighbors I've had. While one the conservative trump supporters I consider the better of them all as a person. As far as I can tell, I agree with the others political views, I think anyone with a brain should lean hard to the left. But as individuals they lack the heart and common decency I see in the conservative whose political views I find disgusting. Here is the real problem as I see it. Although I agree with you that we are not lacking information, we are no longer living in _The Information Age._ Instead we are currently living in _The Age of Misinformation._ The internet, like all tools eventually are, is now being used as a weapon by the power seekers among us to further subjugate us all to their wills to fill their wallets with the masses of gold desire that they are too weak and cowardly to attain by working with their own hands. We the people of this world need to stand up for each other and stop this madness. Because as we can both see, it is growing and soon may destroy us all otherwise. I hope you are all staying as happy and healthy as you are able in these trying times. Much love from rural California. ^-^

As a system that requires a moral people to survive and thrive and is to a large extent in this respect an "honor system" is mercilessly beaten, burned, looted, murdered, trashed, by ignorant Marxist anarchist haters, your keynote for 2020 is the big bad imperialist USA? The USA is weak because it was founded for a moral people and its people are no longer moral and there aren't appropriate laws to enforce a stability that was previously endemic to the people. Imagine actually believing in a utopia on earth, instead of being pragmatic about the lesser evil and realizing the stability in places like China comes at the cost of personal liberty and grows from the end of a gun. Your endorsement of leftist shills like Noam undermines the only real hope you have ever had for personal liberty- Western Civilization.

He is definitely still sharp minded. He also makes some good points, especially on a country's involvement in other countries affairs. I fervently disagree with his overall message however, and I am amazed he doesn't 1. Recognize the evil of all people (not just his US bashing). 2. Thinks that left to their own devices, other countries involved in some horrid acts will cease or that they even don't do these acts in the 1st place, and therefore there is never a reason to stop atrocities from anywhere, 3. That any system of Govt. put in place before Western culture produced world wide success (even with the awful wars/manipulations that can be accounted to any nation) that the US/Western Democracy has. It has lifted more people out of poverty than any system seen in history to date. Is it perfect? GOD NO. And sometimes it is even bad... the US especially has some ugly warts in its past. But if someone wants to 'do better', they need to explain the plan up front. Socialism revisited? Give me a break. How many times must it fail and become corrupt (and kill countless millions) before we finally reject it as a 'valid' governance.

​@@THDTPSEvents This might be a year old but you are wrong on too many points to let it go. *1. Recognize the evil of all people (not just his US bashing).* The reason he focuses mostly on US atrocities is very logical and sound: Because that is where he can have the biggest impact, and the audiences he touches domestically has the vote in the most powerful nation in the world. It is also _very reasonable_ to focus your critique on the government that is supposed to represent you. *2. Thinks that left to their own devices, other countries involved in some horrid acts will cease or that they even don't do these acts in the 1st place* For this statement to have fundamental merit it would have to rest on implications derived from fallacies. Fallacy 1. The US is supporting democratic development in third world nations. (On the contrary, there is a strong correlation between US interference and _lack of democracy_ in, for example, Latin America and Indo China.) Fallacy 2. The US is stopping or halting undemocratic toppling of nations. (On the contrary, the US has a rich history of toppling democratically elected leaders all the way back to Mossadegh in Iran 1953.) Fallacy 3. Thinking it is your job to police the world. (Even if human rights are violated in a dispute between two nations, there is no reason to think that anyone involved wants US help to begin with. If America started a war with Canada, you wouldn't accept the emperor of Tunisia to invade in an attempt to take control of the situation to further spread their cultural influence) *3. That any system of Govt. put in place before Western culture produced world wide success* This is the worst one. The size of the proverbial blinders you must wear daily to say something so hilariously wrong is beyond me. World wide success??? So the structural adjustments forced on third world countries by The World Bank and IMF (Where US holds veto), referred to by international economists as "kicking away the ladder" is success? 4 billion people living under the humanitarian poverty line is success? 70% of biodiversity _gone_ in 50 years do to the industrial practices executed by the west, then mainly exported to the east during globalization and liberalization of capital markets?? While the west has been the dominant regime everything has gone to shreds. You just confuse yourself by overlapping the horrors of capitalism with the successes of Industrial revolution, like all the other conservative state lap dogs. Leading us to the next: *3.1 It has lifted more people out of poverty than any system seen in history to date* No it hasn't. Steven Pinker is wrong, and the world bank is cooking the books. It is a well known fact among specialists in the field. More people are in poverty than ever before. Nation after nation has been shredded to pieces in the name of US dominance. Furthermore: The increased quality of living seen in the west is _not_ a result of capitalism. It is a result of research and development mostly paid for by the state. What you ascribe to the economic system is actually a result stemming from the Industrial Revolutions. And those have been driven by state capital, not private investment. Everything in your PC was researched and developed for decades in the state sector before being handed over to the private sector. I can give you a ton of examples. *3.2 Socialism revisited? Give me a break.* True admission of brainwashed bias, and I don't blame you. That one is such a strong meme that many intelligent people also fall for it. So just to be clear: Both the Russian and American propaganda systems has been agreeing on the postulation that USSR was an example of socialism. They did it for opposite reasons, so the agreement is merely a convergent development. (Russia wanted to be seen as Socialist because of the potent connotations the title carried at that place and time) (USA wanted to smear Socialism so it also granted that title to the new fascist one party dictatorship in the east at that time) Socialism at it's core means workers control over means of production. That's where you begin, everything else comes after that. Did that happen in Russia in October 1917? (The opposite happened. By December any hope for a democratic process had been stifled.) If you think the opposite is the case _please do share_ your sources. The reality is that even Germany was closer to something resembling socialism at the very same time, since they had workers unions, giving the worker a degree of control over the capitalist owned means of production. (The core of socialism, as stated by it's originators, _not_ the modern, American version where Socialism means "haters who want everyone to be poor" ) When the USSR collapsed in 1991, the world didn't get rid of an example of socialism, it lost a grand barrier to it.

Yes but why does Chomsky, even though he recognizes the pure charlatanism of the lawyer class of so-called founding father, still put any sort of stock in the Constitution? It was obviously written by criminals, it was never meant to be followed, and the point is people still keep pointing to it as if we can't move on because we have this great "Constitution". When all it is is a blank check to Empire, anybody with any sense can look at it and see that it doesn't forbid American Empire anywhere anytime. It doesn't stop American Business from making Americans homeless, it doesn't stop American Idiot Finance corporations from ruining Americans economic lives, and it doesn't stop idiotic American adventures in the military and economic spheres from starting Wars all over the planet. Chomsky sure does state every single point about American Empire, without going 1iota Beyond it. Perhaps that's why he's still alive
