I've thought about why the political landscape has changed it use to be so straight forward and people last heard JFK speak of the government and the secret societies in America but you get eventually what they do is beyond us and as long as we're safe we shouldn't get nasty about it cause they have to play poker and can't go around telling the truth with all this espionage and new arrivals old thorns that cold war, we sure don't know how to play the game they're in forget all the reasons why it's smart but we calling them dumb. BIDEN has been good not sure great but good handling all the crap he's had to deal with he's got a cool attitude 😂 looking Putin in the eye , that was great I loved it.
The US is very fortunate to have such an institution as Chomsky, a giant in the land of dwarves. I'm a Malaysian but I consider him an international icon.
What I've been doing for many years, is, when I place my order at Jack in the Box, Taco Bell etc. give your name, CHOMSKY as loud and clear as you can. They always cannot understand, which is terrific- say CHOM-SKY again and again, louder and louder. Then when your burger is ready, they have to yell CHOMSKY! CHOMSKY! Just ignore it. Let them yell it at least ten times..
They exist as four of the most wicked philosophers, in the dictates proposed of this excessive emergence in Latin America. And well as being self defined , standard bearers as to preclude itself as the model of modern western hemisphere dictates. And of conformist views ,as an this superior inheritance formed in America's visions of it as a superpower. And it's dominance as in the interest of being so spectacularly exceptional.
Maybe the U.S. has been the model for the world they just don't like boasting or blowing their own horn so they let anyone with English literature skills to talk down on themselves cause these Chicanos can't speak English good enough to put it on a stage. English is a fox 🦊
@s0452804 It show how far we have got to go to get this country on the right track. it like almost being near the bottom of a bottom less pit looking up to the top in hopes of crawling out....seems impossible ...practically impossible in our lifetime..but i still have hope.
@applaya, By studying political capital itself I suppose. Ultimately we are the source of it. And we must choose to spend it, which we do in far more ways than simply voting. In what we eat and consume, what we do for a living, how we entertain ourselves. There are so many ways. Why not create a site designed to best reveal the workings of a small communities politics, like a game? The electorate could play roles in an evolving virtual government using the real data and local issues.
that is a great shame. It's just show you where the heart of people are and at the same time they think they know everything about the world when listening to 1hr of news and half of that hour is commercial, celebrity gossips etc.
Jean-Jacques Dessalines and Henri Christophe were terrible genociders and frightening cruelty. Dessalines murdered in Haiti in 1804 and in 1805 on the other side of Spain children, women and men for being white and the criminals who followed Dessalines and Christophe who committed barbarous murders should not be venerated in Haiti. And also respects. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1804_Haiti_massacre en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Massacre_of_Moca,_Santo_Domingo
@applaya, Suppose you were Noam, and wanted to give our nation back to its people. Wouldn't it be a lot easier to design software that small cities could adopt to manage all of their information more efficiently while simultaneously empowering the local electorate to become far more involved and aware of how their local government works and what it does for them? No local government could afford a to develop a sophisticated system like that. And no private company should be trusted to do it.
how are these simple, easily researchable facts - propaganda? 'Zeleya was democratically elected' is a simple bite of information necessary to understand what went on here. The constitution was written to satisfy power, not people, another easily researchable fact.
@solimiansky You're using unsophisticated language and that's not true at all. A lot of Americans are informed citizens and if you don't believe that then I guess you're foolish enough to believe mean spirited stereotypes.Everyone has intelligence and it's too bad that many people don't understand that ignorance doesn't have to do with intelligence; anyone can learn if they want to listen.
As Chomsky points out now and then, it's in important ways more alive than in the US and Western Europe. Time and time again, the Haitian poor manage to mobilize in their masses to thwart the powers that be. Compare this to how difficult it can be to mobilize people over what they really want and deserve in the so called "democratic" countries.
kinda like Mike C Ruppert more for the leftist view of our gov'ts criminality. then again, they talk about different things. might as well plug him: "Crossing the Rubicon: the Decline of the American Empire at the End of the Age of Oil". great book. another good source for economics is Catherine Austin Fitts (not part. left or right).
Great clip, i'll record it. The only thing i don't agree w/, is the opinion of Noam, about U.S. not really wanting to invade Venezuela. They've already started the provocations by killing members of the national guard of that country's border (shamelessly), and mainly violating their air space. And we have been in collective numerous wars b4. Is it dangerous? Yes. But Chile recently fell unde a new right-wing dominance, and apparently Brasil is heading the same way :/. Peru already is..
Ivan you don't idea about what you talking about, is obvious that you don't understand Chomsky's speech, communist today is an empty word, no even Russian or Chinese are communist, you don't have an idea about history.
I think Noam would get a lot farther if he took an opposite tack--playing down to the greatest extent possible rather than playing up to the harshest interpretation he can defend. Explain something to me. Guys like this believe in democracy but think ours is utterly corrupt. So why not fix it? Why aren't they building sites to harvest our political will directly? Why doesn't Noam, for example, work towards leveraging Obama's "Open Gov Directive" into a tool that better empowers the electorate?
This guy is making me sick! All he is saying I learned it at the UNAH, Universidad Nacional Autonoma de Honduras, beside, he is giving wrong information just to sound as PHD. I studied Honduran history at an autonomous university, I know what are Honduran values, an ignorant in Honduras will know that. Our history has been made be great men, from Morazan to Micheletti. We do not care if the World is against our principles, Viva Honduras! Viva Honduras Y Viva Honduras!
Hector Berrios omg!! How ignorant you are damn! UNAH? Lol i think that putting Chomsky's name in your stupid mouth is an insult to intellectual people , people with brains , go and kiss your boss a_*^$$!
