@ThisSaturatedMind Why are you discussing the rhetoric (with credibility) after calling out a fallacy?

@honour123

Nice ad hominem. His job does not disqualify him from speaking correctly nor render his arguments invalid. He states facts and would be giving quotes if he had had his notes. He not only quotes people of high credibility but he often personally knows the people whom he quotes. Why listen to one person commenting on Youtube when one could watch the video and only judge that? Your comment comes off as childish. There are shorter videos of Chomsky in the interest of time

@honour123 The people who watch his videos do not reflect on him in any way, you do not chose those who are interested in you. Secondly, he is a leading intellectual when it comes to political science. Some people are capable of specializing in more than one topic. Never have I seen one individual know more about history, foreign policy, and econ. Don't be so closed minded my friend.

if you have followers who condem persons that disagree with this so call intellectual as "hitler" i dont want any part of your world .

this man is a linguist any ways. what qualifications does he have for economics or politiical science.

@binhonz Exactly

You guys talk about muslims and jews as if they chose to be born inside those groups. I was born a catholic, and was until I've reached the age of reason, then became atheist. Don't condemn the people, blame the ones in power. You only realise what the people really want when they rebel!
