This man is an INTERnational treasure

[annyms21]

It's scary to think about who will be capable of replacing his voice. There's nobody in the public arena that even approaches his clarity.

@irishgeal1 ?? you made all this up

[TurpentineRec]

@stoprainingonme Chomsky is comparing testimonies of people from 3rd world, occupied by USA and USSR during the Cold War, and pointing the hypocrisy from those on the soviet bloc: "It's also unnecessary to point out to the half a dozen or so sane people who remain that in comparison to the conditions imposed by US tyranny and violence, East Europe under Russian rule was practically a paradise."

@autoarbitaster USA is the 1% of the world. The 99% want it back.

@SeeProfileForDetails "you need to read more Sam Harris." Not you. You need to read something else 'cos your post is like a set of Harris sentences almost literally. Harris is terrible, his logic is misleading because his point is emotional. Like, "Education + Islam = crash planes into buildings."

[TurpentineRec]

@Dymdez Lol! In this case, Sam Harris is hiding his brightness from his books, speeches, lectures, debates. There's not a single argument he can develops, except with a joke, metaphors, fallacy. An example of the complete logical argument he makes: "Think about a perfectly moral and infinitely peaceful society. Can you see a Taliban living there? As long as there are muslins living in America, America will never be America"

[TurpentineRec]

@N8Revolution WTF? LOL! Where you came from? "Ask yourself..."? Because most on internet is in english, you believe that everyone is American? "Are we going to allow the Media to convince us that..." Hello?! Speaking someone' else's word, having someone else's opinion, the "we agree", it's the nature of Americans. You just repeat and do what everyone is doing. Like this "Left/Right monopoly" thing, it's from Alex Jones, I watched that. At least give the credits! :)
