I am sure it was not an open forum. No-one challenged him on anything. If opened up there would be a lot of people of all kinds to attend. It was set up by the student association whose mission is to serve, engage and empower the student body through advocacy, and resources, and the Social and Behavioral Sciences. Chomsky never debates anyone, I think he had like two debates, and once or twice went on William F. Buckley Jr show, and once on the Alex Jones show, so his opinions are only challenged by others challenging his ideas. That said he is a very smart man who has done a tremendous amount of research, but Anarchy is what he describes, which is really not Anarchy, but a collective group with has a say in governance.

BWreSlippySlope 🤨🤨🤨 this was by far the strangest reply I’ve seen. I know it’s not an open forum. My point is, I’m sure there are a helluva lot more students that could’ve attended that event than what showed up. And why should he or would he waste his time debating people who-if they’re anything like that pompous shitbag Buckley-will be disingenuous and talk over him the whole time?? Chomsky’s time on earth is limited. He should only talk to genuine people who have legitimate questions for him at this point and want to learn. Not debate things he’s already been proven right on.

I first heard the name Norm Chomsky from Leonard Berstein's norton lectures. It was a wonderful way to get introdution to linguistic.In orwel 1984, there is "Standard English" as there is truth but new speak would issue new phrases, new words to bent and eliminate what is true from public attention.

It's the mystery that makes life worth living, if we knew everything life would be rather boring. That there are great mysteries - ensures that as long as our species survives it's organic life, life will remain interesting... The great mysteries, perhaps are a form of our organic perceptions that are just learned and observed, and as such tell we are able to function on a higher level of consciousness and awareness of our collective unconsciousness thought, it is highly un likely that we will even begin to understand the great mysteries, because it's based on thought.. Btw certain types of meditation is all about not thinking and moving into oneself with a non mental non thinking clarity. And then there are dreams....
