    As far as all the written + audiovisual material he’s left us won’t be ‘erased’, he will remain among us. I doubt, though, his exceptionally lucid mind will ever touch a number of humans significant enough to change the global criminal + suicidal behavior of Homo ‘sapiens’. This very man, alas, is definitely much too smart to convince but the usual (un)happy few. Tech, especially, has made the anonymous mainstream ‘doxa’ far, far too powerful.

I am as big as a football player and still feel so small listening to him.

    You could be right.. but not 100 percent sure... for hindsight is 20/20 Publishing the Pentagon Papers encouraged the U.S. to step back from military ventures. In 1975 or before, possibly the U.S. should have fully gone into Cambodia to rescue its people. .. even it meant coordinating with the Vietnamese Communist. Americans went through fatigue to fight overseas... but millions died in Cambodia. In 1983, I was arrested for civil disobedience and placed overnight in a private room with Daniel Ellsberg. He said, Sometimes, one needs to push someone away who, by chance, is blocking you from reaching a drowning We talked about the book, Experiment in Truth.... But, I applied political correctness before the term was widely known.. I wanted to question about the need for military force in Cambodia. I understand are militarism in southeast Asia destabilize Cambodia. Nevertheless, there is a time. We can't throw the baby out with the bathwater. Our earlier involvement being dirty... the baby being the helpless Cambodians. Our actions earlier that night was to stop the testing of the MX missle. The MX was part of Ronald Reagan's star wars. The Soviet Union could not continue to compete. .. and collapse. The outcomes are not black or white. It's good that the Soviet Union collapse.. not so good it nuclear information and materials end up on the black market. So, the U.S. backing away from overseas conflicts is not completely right.

I hope Assange is pardoned, but don’t think he has much credibility or importance anymore.

Not to say he doesn't have that fire still, but age can dull that intensity.

    Already you can see how panicked Chomsky makes his opponents. This overconfident snooty interrogator tries to railroad Chomsky by peppering him with questions while simultaneously attempts to talk over his answers. Only makes him look foolish, afraid to deal with the replies.

    He's not exactly young here. You have to realize, this guy has been famous (or at least noteworthy) since the 1950s. As an undergraduate computer science student many years ago we were still studying his then four decades' old linguistics research impact on the design of programming languages long before I ever knew about his political work -- I saw him on the news one day and remembered the guy with the funny name from a radically different context than I had learned it. Who has that kind of career longevity, aside from former child actors? It's pretty impressive. I don't agree with a lot of what he says but I have huge respect for him nonetheless.

So don’t waste you time trying to argue with him! He always win in the end!!
