    @Siłerka We accept risks without our consent all the time. We have literally sent people off to war to die, multiple times, without their consent. The idea that people should be able to consent to any risk is a literal impossibility in any working society. But more to the point, if you think the risks of the vaccines are anywhere near the risks of NOT having the vaccines, you've been consuming a bunch of propaganda instead of listening to actual experts who know what they're talking about. Everybody I know has had multiple Covid shots, none of them have had any serious negative consequences, and when a few people I've known did then get Covid -including me - it was mild as a result. That matches what the data experts and serious scientists have been telling us. It's amazing to me what people can be persuaded to believe, flat Earth, a man in the sky watching literally everything all the time, all the crap coming out of Russia, Democrats eating human babies, what an absolute cornucopia of bullshit.

    Maybe it is better not to idolize people in position? I saw some other comments which comment on “how amazing” Chomsky is at his current age. But that almost sounds perverse when you admire someone for their alleged intellectual achievement. What if you had only limited amount of some kind of life saving medication and you had a choice to give it ti the 93 year old Noam Chomsky or to some person who may not have been as lucky or had the opportunity to be an academic. It sounds like you would save Chomsky and say “fuck you, die” to another person.

    Just wanted to bring up a few points regarding this interview because i noticed the same issues in some of your questions with Andrew Bustamante. First of all, I absolutely love all your podcasts and your interviewing questions are absolutely stunning most of the time. The amount of preparation you put into your questions is inspiring. When considering political matters, it's often irrelevant to talk about things like who is to blame, is putin a dictator/psychotic/evil, did putin fail to conquer the hearts and minds of the world etc... Politics is about interests so it should be seen with that lens. Most of the times, about money, very often about resources. The questions should be more about which interest is served by this action, what is the end goal of this policy or this war, etc.. Lastly, I was hoping to ask if you'd consider a podcast that mentions the war in Yemen, which has been a unilateral slaughter by the west and saudis. Thank you for your consideration and again, I'm a huge fan of yours.

    I guess what is equally relevant is questions about human psychology. I would say a political leader's state of mind affects the decisions he makes. A very fundamental question is whether individuals who make such decisions as leaders are 'bad apples' or are there certain political, social situations that make individuals act in evil ways. Not to mention people who obey such orders or fall prey to brainwashing. As to Yemen, a lot of other countries (such as my own country of origin) are involved in the commitment of atrocities there.

    It is also about Human things like Pride, Humiliation, Grandiosity, Legacy etc so it is not only about money, Putin maybe right now richest man on the world but he doesn't care about that he uses money to control people and he uses the money for Power. Human beings are the most vain species in the entire universe, most people will chose Pride and Respect instead of money hence you see in country after country the poor will repeatedly vote against their own interest because they feel disrespected when they feel powerless you can see poor giving power to people like Jair Messias Bolsonaro, Modi, Trump etc who are completely corrupt and would be against their self interest if it was only about money but these people give them something else they give them feeling of respect, power over other enemies (those who look down on them). Hell we are apes, even an ape would go violent and kill it's owner if it thinks it's been disrespected even though owners feed it constantly, there are experiments on that. Putin is no different he is thinking about his legacy he want to be immortal a great leader, money is secondary to that. The CCP gains it's power because it constantly tells people in China that they have been humiliated over centuries by the west by Japan and CCP has promised to get revenge for that humiliation so the people of China will accept anything to get that revenge hence they keep CCP in power. Germany felt humiliated after world war 1 that is how Hitler rose to power, money maybe involved my dude but in the end Humans want status, importance, respect and Pride more.

    Omg Mr noam has lost it. First he said that all unwaxxed people should blame themself for not taking the "clot shot" and now he is on the line of that Russia is the bad guy. I am not gonna say more, the guy is to old to comprehend logic anymore. Remember who started the most wars these last 100 years with false flags and it put things in perspective. Yea offcourse, put all "Nator" millitary on the border of russian, then corrupt the goverment to in ukraina so US can control every move. In the meantime let mr Claus take over the cabinets of all european countries and deprive them of all control. Guy is spoon fed these days.. no offence but this is the second time he is out of it

    One of Chomsky's great values is that he concentrates on the really important questions and issues and does not let himself get distracted by non-essential or unanswerable questions or issues (so often invoked by propagandists and superficial journalists). It doesn't matter if Putin or the neocons are "mad," "demented," "evil" or even "well-intentioned good guys". Look at what they do and say and what the logical consequences are for humanity.

And the West still seems to be talking this idiocy like they are in the right somehow... even Chomsky calling The invasion an illegal act of aggression seems to miss the fact that this is a war of the Russian state trying to maintain its integrity against an illegal alliance of military adversaries otherwise known as NATO... I don't see how Chomsky can honestly say that it's okay for the United States to send weapons to kill Russians but yet that we're not at war with Russia... I'm not saying that these military actions are right but I am saying is that in the world that the United States has created what else can you do? Somebody threatens you militarily, you deal with the threat... So that applies to the United States, when all it wants out of Iraq is for investors to get rich, but it doesn't apply to Russia when Russia is fighting an existential crisis on its own border?

If I have any blessings to send, I certainly send them your way. Keep wary of the memories you receive from experiencing war.

    40:30 Noam is so right about how things started changing drastically in the late 70's early 80's. In 1978 I was 13 living off a highway in Independence Missouri. All that was on a mile stretch of highway by our house was a small quik mart convenience store. As 1978 went by I saw an explosion of fast food places being built. Hardees, Wendy's, 7-11, Quick Trip, Pizza Hut and a couple of others all within half a mile of each other. A year earlier I had been living in a very small town of 12,000 people and the next year in a much bigger city and literally saw the conversion of locally owned stores to franchise stores in the blink of an eye. 30 years later I saw documentary footage of once Chess champion turned crazy person Bobby Fischer walk around aimlessly in 1978, you can see all the myriad of franchise food places being built in the background. At the time all these shiny new stores seemed fantastic but ultimately it looks like it was the beginning of a nightmare..and I'm just talking fast food joints.
