A short video featuring the world renowned linguist and political activist from MIT university Professor Noam Chomsky.

Noam Chomsky puts in simple words the current trends and options for the future of mankind on this small and fragile planet that we call Earth and home.

The intention of the video is to make you start thinking about not just yourself, but also the world that surrounds you and has directly or indirectly impact on your future and the future of your children, grandchildren and humanity as a whole.

You can download the video in .AVI format and better quality from Mediafire.com at this URL http://www.mediafire.com/?bwxcpwmdhww

Enjoy!

  • Why can't people realize (some do) that as time moves forward we are becoming more out-of-touch with our true nature, which is that we are aggressive and sexual beings. We are being wrapped up in sociological evolution. This is not natural but man made, or should I say government made. The ball is to powerful and fast now to slow down. The end result will be true bedlam. This is just my opinion of course.

    Thank you for reading and thanks to Noam Chomsky.

  • That's the pesimistic view. I thought so too a few years ago, but I got faith into people again over the past 2 years. Ppl are good, at least the majority is, they only live in a bubble. Once they got a glimpse outside their bubble, the good comes out.

    I began to hope that it does not have to come to bedlam first, in order for people to realize that we are on track to total destruction and maybe even total annihilation and change course before it will be too late.

    That's my optimistic view.

  • this is quite possibly the funniest thing ive ever read...if evolution is anything to go by, the certainty of its existance completely disproves your so called "opinion".

    If this so called negative sociological evolution never took place...we'd still be living in the dark ages, or being a technologically advanced race, we would have destroyed ourselves long ago.

  • Believe me, we would have, if we would have been able to do so. It's not so long ago when man was depending on the will of nature entirely. Look at today. .. also, I don't believe that 1,000,000 German V2 rockets or Tiger Tanks would have been able to detroy mankind and that was the sophistication of destruction as best as you could get it.. less than 100 years ago.

  • @oihhow You original point was unarguable because it was fucking pointless, weak and virtually substance free. After that I realized what a co-signing retard you are, lost the respect required to argue, and decided to show you a side of yourself that only your mother has seen. You are a failure and Chomsky is an OVER-quoted faggot. It's been done already and done to death a long time ago. You are behind the curve young buck. Seriously, catch up, you're not that bright.

  • @mynamearekid Yeah, let's avoid actually discussing anything and instead just point out what words are too advanced and confusing for you, thats a weird way to get out of actually making a point. but if you're that desperate to avoid having to actually respond to Chomsky's brilliant insights (which you obviously cant do) then its not surprising

  • @oihhow LOL I love how you attempt to come off as an intellectual because you hate yourself inside so you use words like "ad-hominem" so that you appear intelligent but since no one actually talks like that it just makes it apparent that you have self esteem issues. If you were actually intelligent you would be more confident in yourself and not need to talk like that.

  • @mynamearekid Retarded ad-hominem attack because you cant attack his actual ideas. And he's the most cited person alive (and one of the most cited of all time), and has been one of the most popular activists, intellectuals and dissidents of all time, sooo clearly lots of of people care and so do you apparently

  • Chomsky is a fucking linguist. Not a fucking philosopher. Shut the fuck up Chomsky. No one cares.

  • @jpcortijo Correction--of all time.

  • @sandite26 cool, I'd rather be wrong than stupid! peace.

  • @breaneainn Most people would be too proud to do what you just did, so I appreciate it. It shows class.
