Linguist and political activist Noam Chomsky criticizes right-wing media outlets, which he describes as delivering a message of paranoia and economic populism comparable to Nazis during the Weimar Republic. "There were people with real grievances," says Chomsky. "The Nazis gave them an answer."

-----

World-renowned intellectual Noam Chomsky has been pushing change in language, politics and culture for decades. The controversial expert on modern language explains why "the smart way to keep people passive and obedient is to strictly limit the spectrum of acceptable opinion, but allow very lively debate within that spectrum." - Commonwealth Club of California

Noam Chomsky, a professor of linguistics and philosophy at MIT, is the author of numerous books on U.S. foreign policy, including American Power and the New Mandarins, Political Economy of Human Rights (two volumes, written with Edward Herman), Fateful Triangle: The United States, Israel, and the Palestinians, and Pirates and Emperors, Old and New: International Terrorism in the Real World. His most recent books are Failed States and Perilous Power.

    Probably the best 9/11 conspiracy debunking, even in controlled experiments there are abnormalities that scientists don't get, in something as chaotic as 9/11 the fact that building 7 went down or whatever is not even an issue.

  • You know, of all people, you would think Chomsky would be the last person to resort to a reductio ad hitlerum

  • At least the Nazi's didn't do it for money

  • Thumbs up if you're tired of the existence of stupidity.

  • @GrandInquisitor7 Thumbs up if you're sick of hate mongering douches like me.

  • @bongojim420 So just because he is jewish means he is lying for big government, while exposing and talking about 9/11 being set-up? anti-semetic and stupid. Yes 9/11 may be and probably is setup, we will never know for years or at all. Not all jewish people are money hungry zionist shills trying to take over the world and again you are dumb.

  • @TheAsymmetrical FireFightersFor911Truth . org.

    NIST did not even test for incendiary devices on the trade towers,

    guess why!? Can't find what you don't look for. Their reason, lol, because they said it was ''unlikely'' so fuck it right!? Why bother, who cares right? That what Chumpsky says also, I will give it to the Jew clan they defend there own wrong or right.

  • @TheAsymmetrical AE911TRUTH . ORG hear why over 1,600 verified architects & Engineers that make buildings for a living explain why the towers defied the laws of physics and were brought down by controlled demolition.

    WTC7 was not even hit by a dam plane ffs!? lol

  • @bongojim420 No they didn't.
