I FEEL A GREAT DEBT TO CHOMSKY. HIS LIFE AND WORK HAVE ADDED IMMEASURABLY TO WHAT IT MEANS TO BE HUMAN. HE ENGAGES A WIDE VARIETY OF PEOPLE AND MANAGES TO MEET THEM WHERE THEY ARE, PLACING THEIR QUESTIONS INTO THE CONTEXT OF THE HISTORY OF IDEAS. I AM GRATEFUL HE IS LEAVING BEHIND THIS LEGACY FOR US TO STUDY GOING FORWARD.
Great interview as always, thank you! It really adds to most of what he usually recaps in other discussions. Here one can probably find the best clarification regarding competence and production. Also, I think it is the first time he speculates (even if only briefly) on functional/logical words, but even more he reconsiders his assumptions on the origin of substance words. It would be really interesting to know more about what led him to rethink that, if you plan to have him on again soon.
One of the best Chomsky talks (language and philosophy - though he throws in a couple of political zingers, notably re bin Laden) on the 'net. He is still actively changing his way of explaining issues, and sometimes making them clearer for me. Informative, and heart-warming for admirers of the man!
🙏🏼, if’s my senses to the sentences I have never mind about grammatical errors, how’s errors without senses into any problems and human behavior is my mind. It’s my wrongly with self opinion senses😞the struggle in wild rawness world 🌎 , it’s my teardrop pouring when I try into there’ll ever been innocent and help lessen mine🙏🏼.
Dude I can't believe you got him again. This is the first thing I'm watching this morning. Your interviewing skills bring out a very lively side of Chomsky.
I was chilling hearing a JBP video while washing some things in the kitchen when suddenly this whole fucking video interupted as propaganda I coulndt change it till I was done with the cleaning.
It comes out in a month or two, it’s called “The Dawn of Everything: A New History of Humanity”. Meanwhile you should also read Debt: The First 5000 Years before that comes out. Graeber is awesome!
This is a very interesting change in Chomsky's opinion on an important issue (important for my interests). "On reflection that's gotta be wrong." As he a often says, science always means being proven wrong eventually! Graeber died in 2020, but the book may be The Dawn of Everything, a New History of Humanity, with David Wengrow, to be published in October 2021, for which Amazon lists Chomsky's praise.
@@johnsalmond I’m not sure it was a mistake-Graeber did pass unfortunately but the book had already been finished just not published yet. Chomsky prolly has early access to it. There’s videos of Graeber talking about it on RU-vid w David Wengrow who he wrote it with. “The Dawn of Everything”
🙏🏼🤔, how many genres yell about right, How orphaned you by your rights, How’s your sacrifice that your real rights, if’s you Have ever said that the human rights😞🙏🏼🇺🇳🌎.
Chomsky's fetishization of capitalism's "classical liberal" values & appeals to the US constitution & other bourgeois legal documents is consistent with his own work on behalf of the US military through MIT. Chomsky claims this simply doesn't exist, but it is a matter of fact. Chris Knight has detailed how Chomsky's early work was funded by the Pentagon. Chomsky claims the military "didn't care" about the research it funded & that the scientists who helped develop ARPA had didn't have "any military purpose." This is all false. He is a gatekeeper of the highest order. If Chomsky was so radical and dangerous he wouldn't be platformed as much as he is. Chomsky's more radical colleague, Edward S Herman was eventually run out of academia for his ideas.
