- Join Noam Chomsky as he discusses the brutal realities laid bare by the COVID-19 pandemic-and the urgent need for an alternative to capitalism. Covid-19 has revealed glaring failures and monstrous brutalities in the current capitalist system. It represents both a crisis and an opportunity. Everything depends on the actions that people take into their own hands. After his talk, Noam Chomsky will be in conversation with E. Tammy Kim.
✌️☮ A true modern day sage, Prof. Chomsky gives me so much courage, strength and hope to fight and defend myself from the Evil in this world. I truly am thankfull that we still have him and that he is still sharing his beautiful mind with us, 🌹♥️🌹 Love Shan 🌹♥️🌹
I never tire of listening to Noam Chomsky. 92 and amazing. We need to take his knowledge, and encourage as many as we can to take note and do all we can to make things happen for the better.
Chomsky thank you hero of truth my gratitude to you can’t be put in words. Bless you hero!
I admire Mr. Chomsky especially that he still is this brilliant although he has reached a very respectable age (93 yes, I believe). Next to Chris Hedges I feel privileged to know both these two great thinkers.
The demeaning comments about Chomsky are indicative of the abject ignorance permeating our culture. He is a brilliant 91 year old man deserving of our deepest respect for his intellect and political acumen.
In other words...he's not a young, rude ignoramus.
No kidding! This comment section is just heart-breaking - not just because they know know nothing about Chomsky's specific politics, but because they know nothing about history.
LOL You both seem to miss the point that Chomsky's, ' politics ', are really irrelevant here:
What is relevant is that Chomsky is a career academic who has never achieved anything else of any legitimate value outside the one field of Linguistics!
What is also relevant is that Chomsky merely exploits Hindsight about fields he has NEVER actually worked in himself-Which is everything outside Linguistics-In order to fit his own biased skewed view of history!
What is also relevant is that Chomsky has made ALL his own multi-million dollar fortune from-Capitalism-The same System he loves to bash so much-Like the ridiculous hypocrite that he is! 😀😀🙂
I see a few negative comments Noam but hey I hear your words and if those braindead people who run this current system could only consider implementing them we would all benefit. Cheers M8.
Thank you Professor Chomsky.
My heart will break when this man is taken from us.
@Ronald Reagan If honesty and integrity are toxic, than I want to be toxic. He's not infallible but he's helped untold amounts of people to wake up and look at the world around them more critically and that a thing worth celebrating.
Chomsky will go down in history as one of the most important philosophers in human history
Many people who criticize the criticism are doing so out of fear. They believe the criticism is a criticism of their diligent efforts to build successful small businesses and an honest living. Nothing could be further from the the truth. The criticism is a criticism of a system that has favored those who are capable of influencing policy makers for special favor, less than 20% of the population. The criticism is a criticism of a system which has become dysfunctional and relies on the nanny state to bail it out of its many failures - the most egregious being the Bush-Obama bail-out of the banks and the automobile industries. Many smaller examples have presented themselves more recently. Yet those who were left hanging, through no fault of their own, due to the bad decision makers at the top were left out in the cold. Nobody came to their rescue. If we truly lived under a healthy capitalist system, companies that failed would be allowed to fail and companies that succeeded would reap the benefits of good decision making and proper management. But we no longer live under true capitalism. It is zombie capitalism, where the well connected & ultra wealthy have the resources to buy politicians and garner favor (not small business). It is a capitalism that is propped up by the state and taxpayer. It extracts from the common man / woman leaving them little benefit & perpetuates the enrichment of a corrupt system.
Yes. It will be a great loss!
@JoshDoVids I don't know what you are talking about..? Ronald Regan was no different than any other politician. No idea where you saw so much honesty and integrity in him, and that he helped a lot of people. Your words. Not mine.
I far as I know, he he broke down the organized labor in this country and the effects of that lingers 40 years later! Now it seams that the workers are trying to organize more and demand better pay and benefits. And that's good. Sorry but I have to disagree.
Great interview. Thank you.
One of the most amazing lectures I have seen in a while from Chomsky. Absolutely 100% on target with every sentence. I feel like too many people now have dismissed him entirely because of his, very clear age (though I dig the bear and hair, just saying...lol) His presentation to me was on point. No question!
All the people bashing Chomsky for his support of socialism should know Chomsky is super anti-USSR.
Also socialism and communism are two different things and there are countries that are or was socialist democracies to certain extent.
His support of socialism is ironic seeing as he's made his fortune from the capitalist system.
Weird given what an authoritarian he was during the pandemic with his put-the-unvaxed-on-an-island-and-if-they-starve-that's-their-problem BS. And then there's the fact he knowingly associated with a ruling class pedophile who provided other members of the ruling class with underage girls. His foreign policy analysis informed my analysis back in the day, but seems his principles are pretty flexible.

LOL Chomsky is the only multi-millionaire anarcho-syndicalist that I know of! 😀
@@KrolKaz How does this fact discredit his views on society?

This was a great talk & interview. Thank you 🙏🏽
Very little truth on youtube. Noam is an oasis in a vast desiccated desert.....
Excellent interview! One of the few speaking to the truth in our world!
mostly a bunch of blabbering nonsense

That is the real truth! :-D

01:06:00 Once the British occupied Hong Kong, China then "leased" it Britain till the late 1990's when it should be handed back to China.
And that's exactly what happened. And now the poor Hong Kong citizens have to live with it.
Yes, one of the most dynamic societies in the world is now a totalitarian sithole.. Whodathunk.
Good video
Knowledge is always something to do with in essence the ESSE in desire to know.

Noam Chomsky needs to be seen way more than he is period
Yes he does-So more people realize that he should not be taken seriously when it comes to any field outside Linguistics! 😀

There is no real price discovery. The question is when did America stop being capitalist? 1974? Or before?
Great man, great men are seldom listened to, much less, allowed in a position of power to effect real change…power never give up power, willingly…
LOL Yet somehow Chomsky was still, ' allowed ', to become a rich famous multi-millionaire himself by complaining about alleged, ' power ', that supposedly, ' oppresses ', him!
See how ridiculous that reasoning is??? 😀
Nice carpet in back ground
What does Chomsky mean when he says what China is doing in Hong Kong is terrible? What exactly is terrible about China exercising legitimate control over Hong Kong, a part of China which currently operates under a one country two systems rule (similar to Macao) which is due to fade away before 2050? Has he bothered to read the National Security Law that was long overdue but was blocked by neocolonial interests in Hong Kong until its implementation in 2020, and which thoroughly blunted the western imperialists’ vigorous (and very open) attempts to destabilize Hong Kong? Or does he prefer rampaging reactionaries killing and terrorizing ordinary Hong Kong residents and Hong Kong police?
At least I’m glad he didn’t attempt to comment on the speakers obtuse question about the “atrocities” in Xinjiang. But he could at least have asked the question about what evidence there is of “what people are seeing” in Xinjiang.
His comment about what China is doing in the South China Seas and how that is contrary to a ruling by the International Court of Justice is outstanding. What ICJ ruling is that? Or does he mean the illegitimate tribunal which went about its proceedings in the absence of one of the parties and whose ridiculous rulings even the benefitting party, the Philippines, has ignored? It’s best Chomsky restricts his comments to US affairs and avoid commenting on affairs in which he is painfully ignorant about.
The moment you stated'reactionary' you revealed your collectivist leanings. China is a brutal dystopia ruled by psychopaths.. Go and stand in a square in Beijing and spout your opinions.. Be seeing ya.
You are both heroes, God bless, truth should prevail
Great interview from a greatest man, thanks Mr. Chomsky
Absolutely 💯
😊
57:00 also plenty of minerals in Afghanistan needed for smart devices I've been led to believe?
Noam is the best.
Just brilliant...
@Ronald Reagan One word to describe something you clearly know nothing about...gross...
It's mighty interesting that one side knows alot about both sides, can analyze and form different principles and predictions based on evolutions... but the other side only knows the words communism and socialism and can only imagine the past 🤔
Look at the numbers -- Communist rulers have killed more people than any other governments in history: Mao and Stalin killed 10s of millions -- far more than Hitler.
You think that, perhaps, communism will be better in the future?
Communism will not ever be better and here is why: Communist governments are flawed because there is not check and balance system. It depends solely on human nature. Human nature doesn't change, hence the implementation of any future Communism will not change, and will be the same tragedy as in the past. It all comes down to unchanging human nature.
@@scramjet4610 Socialism is when the workers control the means of production. In the soviet union the workers controlled nothing, Stalin the dictator did, this tells us that the country was never socialist or communist but simply a dictatorship with a propaganda machine that claimed to be communist. The problem was that the revolution simply lead to a dictator taking over. So mabye the problem is the revolution in itself since they often simply lead to a dictator taking over.
@@scramjet4610 Mabye the problem is dicatorship and lack of democracy rather than the system that was never implemented in the first place? How many military dictatorships are good places to live? VERY few, that in itself answers the question of why all these "Socialist" countries have failed.
she sounds very nice and polite.. ideal
When you have Noam Chomsky in front of you and he's sitting there waiting, please don't take more than 12 seconds to introduce him. The correct way to introduce Professor Chomsky is to say ten words, then shut up for an hour and a half.
Noam speaks the truth.
CZcams is a capitalist social network, though... which makes him (and you) a hypocrite.

This is a really great chat. I'm curious to know what the consequences of hanging out with Jeffery was for Professor Chomsky.
The apologist for Pol Pot and Slobodan Milosevic says capitalism is bad.
What has Slobodan Milosevic to do with Pol Pot??
@@1stsampan Chomsky defended both of them and is a genocide denier in both cases
@@Conn30Mtenor Back to my question. BTW I escaped Numb Chimpsky's and Bernie Sander's kind of paradise in 1968.
He has some much knowledge and experience. He is correct on his economic observations. You don’t need a masters degree in economics to understand and study the history and facts.
LOL Saying that Chomsky genuinely understands Economics, just because he can memorize selected, ' history and facts ', is just as absurd as saying that Chomsky is qualified to coach an NFL team, just because he can memorize last Season's pro football stats! :-D :-D :-D
LovNOAM🙌🏾🇺🇸but does he talk about #anythingBesides the consequences of capitalism?🤔
I love him too, and I think the consequences of capitalism is the only game in town, because it's the root of all our other problems.
LOL Noam conveniently omits that he became a multi-millionaire himself as a, ' Consequence of Capitalism '!
Because then Noam would have to admit the truth what a ridiculous hypocrite he really is! 😀😀😀
@@mck1972 We live in capitalism, he has every right to support his family and make millions and still criticise it. He has to have some financial worth, if he was poor you’d criticise him and say he doesn’t like capitalism because he’s not successful. Think 🤔 about your statement logically. You’ll get it.
@anthonythompson1680 ,
LOL Actually my statement is entirely logical:
Chomsky has spent his entire career bashing the ONE and ONLY Economic System he has EVER made $$$ from himself!
This despite his claims of being an, ' Anarcho-Syndicalist '. Yet NEVER making ANY $$$ from that Economic System!
And this despite NEVER demonstrating that Economic System, can actually work in real world conditions!
All the while continuing to make his millions via bashing Capitalism!
That DOES make Chomsky a ridiculous hypocrite!
So hopefully now you see this actual logic here yourself! :-D
Criticising Capitalism whilst simultaneously praising various
Dictatorships around the World. ?
Yeah....nice work .if you can get it !!
Einstein implied the purpose of life was to recognise hoe we (and literally everything) in the universe are interconnected. Therefore it is also implied we adjust our values accordingly. I salute Chomsky.
bit of a stretch don't you think?
Noam Chomsky should be our President. We would be much better off.
Thank you for sharing Mr Chomsky’s wisdom with us in this wonderful video.
I agree but that will never happen. Unfortunately!
I think he is qualified compared to Biden LOL i.e. senile
Actually, Chomsky has had his entire life to seek any kind of actual Public Office, and-With his superior wisdom-Show he can do better than those he criticizes!
But-Instead he chose to spend all those years merely complaining about everyone else from the sidelines, about fields that he never had the guts to work in himself! 😀
I have a great investment opportunity for Noam.
I hope it's not long term...
The ONLY video we need to see is about the consequences of Socialism & Communism.
I'd like read an intelligent person's analysis of what makes some people think that Chomsky is "the most important scholar/thinker/activist of our time." That would be worth thinking about. Certainly in my view, they share a "lower life form" characteristic that I can't put my finger on. Perhaps that's just because the subject is off-putting.
That deserves a repeat ... Yes indeed -
The ONLY video we need to see is about the consequences of Socialism and Communism.
That is a silly simplistic comment, based on a very narrow fallacious definition of socialism.
@@brianmclean9102 says the man who has no clue.
@@notgiven3114 Anyone who conflates the two terms has not much of a clue.
This man is the most important man alive. I am an economist and 100% pro free-market, not crony monopolistic, campaing-contribution capture capitalism. Milton Friedman is my hero and Chomsky as well. Friedman would greatly condemn the anti-competitive trash that we have today. The capture of politicians through superpacks, the war racket, the huge techno- feuds described by Varoufakis... Aiding your response by foul language only reveals a lack of arguments (and most likely formal education).
If you are really a, ' pro free market economist ', then you must see the utter Hypocrisy in how Chomsky has become a multi-millionaire himself via the very same Capitalist System that he has been bashing for decades! :-D
the preliminaries were a little too much, for a sell out bigger than Sanders.
😊😊бб
er, wasn't the Covid-19 pandameic unleased by a fully socialist country, and the measures used to 'contain' it taken straight out of Mau's little red book?
Firstly, we've never faced a pandemic on such scale before. With that in mind,fit was a giant experiment, and the mechanisms used worked well enough for us all.
I would venture that the time it gave us away from the usual capitalist grind, actually gave most of us time to REALLY think about the world situation we are ALL responsible towards fixing with regards looking after each other and our dear home planet.
If you were discussing THAT, it would be helpful. However, you appear happy to perpetuate more hopelessness.
@@deejannemeiurffnicht1791 How am i happy to perpetuate hopelessness? I believe a system of small government, freedom of the individual and private free enterprise is the best way to defeat it.
Listening to 'experts' explain how we should give socialism one more go certainly gives me that feeling you mention.
If you want to understand hopelessness, talk to someone who grew up and lived in an ex socialist country. They will have many stories.
@@tachikomakusanagi3744 Defining socialist that way is inaccurate and narrow. They surely have some aspects of social/communism, that doesn't mean socialism is hopeless. There are many African countries democracy failed there, and that also doesn't prove democratic is ineffective.
China is state capitalist, and undemocratic. Could hardly call that "fully socialist".

" Free market capitalism is the only system invented that makes even its critics rich, as Mr Chomsky and others have found out" - Dougals Murray.
This old shill has been peddling lies for decades. He would have been jailed in any of his socialist paradises.
The fact that someone who becomes famous by selling books can also become rich by selling those same books does not mean that capitalism favours and enriches everyone. Your quote is a none argument.
@@Ossian-dr1vr Think deeper than simply selling books.
@@hof5943 Mabye YOU should think deeper than books. What I mean is that just because the system favours some does not mean that it favours others, and it does not mean that the system is just.
@@hof5943 And if you mean freedom of speech or something like that, then you should know that it is unrelated to state capitalism and can exist without it.
Slave society - feudal society - capitalism - socialism - communism;
Any backward social system will be replaced by an excellent social system, which is inevitable in the historical process;
The progress of society must prioritize the liberation of labor force.
No matter how bad things get, the true believers will insist capitalism is the best system and that everyone is to blame for their own suffering.
Fortunately, I think those dinosaurs are dying off.
So then Chomsky must be one of those, ' true believers ', himself-Since he made ALL of his own multi-million dollar fortune via: CAPITALISM! 😀
How can Chomsky describe the idiea Carl Marks discovred on Capital and surpless value?
Can Americans manipulate and control Capitalism from its natural cours to soscialism?
The only 'power' the pretentious have is a belief in false 'authority'. When this goes, there is literally nothing left..which is why people cling to it 'for dear life'..
It is the illegitimacy of the self-appointed, thus false, 'authority' that is the core of all Human failings, not the core of the Human being itself..
Born into a false ideology, we are conditioned to reject truth, and thus also the truth of ourselves, which perpetuates the pretentious 'society' and produces the very uncivilised 'civilisation'..
All the genuine ever ask for is genuineness; genuine 'civility', in the knowledge that the false, corrupt and pretentious 'society' is doomed to its own self-annihilation..
"There is nothing more necessary than truth, and in comparison with it everything else has only secondary value. This absolute will to truth: what is it? Is it the will to not allow ourselves to be deceived? Is it the will not to deceive? One does not want to be deceived, under the supposition that it is injurious, dangerous, or fatal to be deceived."
(Friedrich Nietzsche, 1890)

Professor give me the Definition of DEMOCRACY? ... everyone is giving me a partial definition and remain speechless when I correct them!
After 2500 years ... finally I have the missing link to clarifying. But for some reason ... I am being ignored as I am born from the region of Birth Place of Democracy where there has been Genocides going on for Centuries and now one of "Professors" talk anything about at all.
The definition of Democracy as I was taught by my teachers in school is the needs of the many over the needs of the few and a majority rule all have a vote but it comes down to the majority but it’s a flawed system like most of the other political systems our American politics were copied from the Roman republic and the Greek Democracy but it was installed by a group of wealthy landed gentry and they were not trying to give a vote to the poor or working class among the colonies but in time things have been amended and changed. It was a nice idea two hundred years ago but they have had two hundred years to screw it up and our great experiment of Democracy is an abysmal failure with the introduction of the big corporations money and unfettered greed now it’s the needs of the few over the needs of the many.
@@jamescreek1319 , at least you understand that no body has given you a clear and accurate Definition of Concept "Democracy"!
That is based on my research and listening to many "Professors" of "Social Sciences" copping each other.
I also heard President Biden referring to 3 others ... saying: "Democracy is not a State but an Action".
While he is right that it is not "a State"... his understanding is limited.
First we need the Definition, than how and where it applies, also how it relates to other concepts of importance, .. and lastly the Actions! (he was talking about).
I would like to here this "noble prize winner" as Professor to tell us the Definition?!
Frankly I’m an Anarchist and Don’t subscribe to any political Doctrine or comply with the Fiat government that’s as phony as the currency and not fit to wipe ones arse with. Freedom is just a word that means I don’t give a shit. So I’m free I suppose. and having a few gold and silver coins helps as well.
@@jamescreek1319 I do not blame you for being confused. But I am tell you that the confusion is caused because of those "professors" who do not explain anything clear and leave it up to the Oligarchy to pretend that "democracy" exist. Well in conditions of Pseudo-Democracy and manipulative propaganda anybody is confused. Confusion brings us to Anarchy and Recycling Oligarchy!
That is why I call out the "professors" to at least explain or give the best they could do withe their version of the Concept of "Democracy"!
It is in every human interest to clarify that once for all... because Everything including our Existence as Humans is at Risk!
@@jamescreek1319 ::
It's not fair to place the situation of modern-day on modern actors.
You have to go back to the times of the Formation of the United States, as you have already out-lined, w / a number of additions on my part, since I can't mine my own business ::
(1)
you're dead-on about the formation being based on the roman republic ; but, they did not have any use for the greek system of democracy.
● they met in secret and over-turned the articles of confederation, w / o the full-knowledge of the representatives of the 13.
● they replaced it w / a document that better represented their gentry-class that you honestly admitted but is usually left out of the history classes.
(2)
in those days, _they_ were _the minority_ who had to protect their "opulence" from _the majority_ that some of the writers of the constitution referred to as _the mob._
● protecting their property-rights was a major reason for the over-throw of the colonial government ( people couldn't vote unless they had property ) [ a class-system from the earliest stages ].
● they made sure the supreme court justices had life-time appointments to prevent changes to the new document.
● the senate would safe-guard their position as the new ruling-class ( the public couldn't vote for senators, directly, until the 1900's ).
● they "angled" the rules even further to need only 9 states to ratifify the constitution instead of the mandatory 13 under the old aoc rules.
(3)
they pretty-much over-played their strategy because the new state representatives wouldn't relent and the "founders" had to add the bill-of-rights to get the ratification ( this has been verified by chief-justice marshall ).
(4)
hamilton, as the first-secretary-of-the-treasury, formed an elaborate out-line as to how the financial / economic system should be established ::
_the governmentalization of corporations and the corporatization of government ( a merger of the two ) ; exactly what we have now !_
corporate interests existed in 1789.
financiers / land-speculators / slave-holders / lawyers / industrialists / property-owners were all at that secret meeting.
_Amos Singletary, Anti-Federalist from Sutton, Massachusetts ::_
_( His opinion of the real motivations of The Framers ) ::_
_"These lawyers, and moneyed men, that talk so finely, and gloss over matters so smoothly, to make us poor, illiterate people, swallow down the pill, expect to get into Congress themselves ; they expect to be the managers of this Constitution and get all the powers and all the money into their own hands and then they will swallow up all us little folks like the great leviathan ..."_

Any know-nothing can try to bash Noam Chomsky, but they will only show themselves to be ill-informed, to put it mildly.
maybe a linguist...
The most important - there are scores of others. Milton Friedman. He took criminality out of hard work and innovation, and that benefits the whole of mankind. That definitely is more important scholarly achievement than bashing America, claiming that global warming is true - (turns out it is complete BS) and shaming people for not wanting to vaccinate themselves and their kids (turned out a complete, murderous scam).

Noam Chomsky is the secular Isaiah.
Absolutely SPOT-ON!
I've often said the same!
Where is my idek.
Consequences of communism?
communism is symbiosis, how life evolved and flourished over billions of years.
Right! I'm curious.
You can find a thousand videos on that, funded by big business or the state department.
Show us one country where Socialism has been good for the people? Look no further than North Korea that calls themselves a "Socialist Paradise" JONESTOWN was a "Socialist Paradise" and we all know how that turned out.
If you can curb your myopis for a moment and take a university course in Marx's Capital, you will not have to ask. You'll know the answer, and North Korea and Jonestown are not exampes of socialism.
Consequence number one: hunger and absolute poverty and destitution dropped and worldwide dramatically in the last hundred years.
LOL. That's the exact same argument made by every communist government of the 20th century. And yet under global capitalism, tens of millions of people still die EVERY YEAR because of hunger and poverty, all of which has INCREASED during the last decade due to COVID and rising food prices, and when the wealth of billionaires has skyrocketed. Maybe that's why they call it a consequence.
@@portpass1974 where is this 'global capitalism' of which you speak? The UN, IMF, national central banks etc are all international socialist organisations (i.e. communism) designed to implement a worldwide command economy.
@@tachikomakusanagi3744 Socialism is the workers controlling the means of production. Can you tell me what workers are involved in the control of the IMF? No you obviously can't so how can an organisation that is in favour of supporting the ultra wealthy and stealing government money aswell as keeping the workers powerless be communist? Well it obviously can't so it's not communist. Communism is not when government exists and does things, governments have existed for thousands of years before communism was ever thought of.
The consequences of capitalism is there are winners and losers. And unfortunately often the losers can't accept their failures and blame others instead of themselves. Failure of personal responsibility is an epidemic mindset.
So people need to take personal responsibility for outcomes that are inherent in the system that is imposed upon them?
You missed the point completely. There's no capitalism, there's statism, where businesses are propped up, supplied with technology, subsidized, and bailed out by the state. It's "state capitalism ", like in Russia, the US, the UK, China, and every single other country in the world, that creates so many losers. Accept it if you want, but at least understand what is happening
capitalism accelerates entropy. all life is diminished. violence is justified
Maybe I've always hated this argument because for whatever reason the only people who seem to espouse it seem to be either aging rich people, or misguided frat boys. What's more I always get the feeling that if the tables were turned these same people would immediately denounce their beliefs. It's like an ideology for closeted whiners who just wanna point the finger at other people simply because they weren't as lucky as them. Of course you aren't going to complain about a system that you are profiting off of but that doesn't mean you have to vehemently defend the ideals of said system, especially when it sounds dumb and outdated, and furthermore, boomerish. I wonder how many "losers" out there are just victims of circumstance, not for lack of hard work. I guess see DrSpooglemon's succinct summation above

better come something up better than capitalism or Marxism than....
Chomsky has never made an intelligent comment about capitalism. His only area of expertise is linguistics. And the vast majority of people couldn't care less about that. I won't miss him.
Seemed pretty wise to me... You know... Language is the basic tool to propagate knowledge, ideas or even advance human intelect... Seems veryyyyy important too. The vast majority of people don't care because they're dumb... We're not exactly full of Einsteins or Newtons in this world are we?!? Do you think that's because of luck or coincidence??? (I really hope you, at least, have the minimal IQ to answer that)
@@Trip4man You don't seem to be able to grasp meaning and stay on points. "Linguistics" doesn't mean the same thing as "language." And I'd wager that even the majority of very intelligent people don't care about linguistics. As for my IQ, I'd also wager that it dwarfs yours.
@@notgiven3114 lol of course you're going to say something... So you're saying that studying Linguistics doesn't mean you're studying Languages. Okay. Nononono your IQ is realllyyyyyy gigantic. Who are you and what you do in life? You invented something for humankind? Please share
@@Trip4man As I said, you don't seem to be able to grasp meaning and stay on points.
Linguistics as an academic field has almost nothing to do with language learning or usage. I stupidly got a degree in linguistics, but I can tell you none of the professors could have given two shits about Chomsky’s view even within his own field.
This is not what I ask for
I want to see more of the video I requested.This is bull shit
One of the consequences of Capitalism - perhaps the most important ? - is that
it enables its critics like Chomsky to make a very comfortable living whilst
continually complaining about how " evil " it is .
Thank You!
Nice to see there are others who see the truth of what a ridiculous hypocrite Chomsky actually is!
This parasite should be living in cuba.
So you cant earn money in any other system than capitalism? Are people really this dumb?
@tari8134 ,
So how much money has Chomsky himself ever made from ANY Economic System-OTHER than Capitalism?
ZERO!
You just answered your own question! :-)
@@tari8134You will not see it until it is right in your dimly lit face
Noam Chomsky ... Whatever. I feel that this guy just tells people what everybody is already thinking anyway.
Lol 😂
God I wish everybody thought about capitalism the way Chomsky does.
The original Karen
'all dictatorships are founded on altruism'.
Ayn rand.
Dictatorships are founded on the coalessing of power until one is strong enough to suppress all opposition. This is essentially how kings where created in medieval times before government, and it is also what will happen in a hypothetical Randian complete free market.
Mandy Rice Davies would know what to say in reply to that. She is or was a hell of a lot prettier too.
Here comes all the Ayn Rand nuts.

As always plenty of talk, discription but no single solution from supposedly such great mind.
.........
Has he spoken at least once about psychopaths or sociopaths that are at top in governments and corporations?
Pyshcopaths!
are you waiting for solutions instead of imagining them yourself? how weakminded and passive. lol
Eat the rich!
A professor on the dole, condemning Capitalism? How stupid you think we are?
Don't worry, this video isn't for people who can't handle ideas they disagree with.
@@borbalbuddy We agree he is on the dole, complaining as a pseudo-intellectual academician about free enterprise, right?
Not from the Private (Risk) sector.
@@jamesmoeller9366 he freely admits he's in a privileged position, which allows him to raise awareness about how the system hurts those with less privilege. And "free enterprise" and "private sector" are weasel terms to cover the cronyism and subsidies that those entities benefit from while advocating "self-reliance" for everyone else.
@@borbalbuddy Xactly, that’s why this ethical man left the “profession”, oh wait? ROFL
I think you just exposed the depth of your stupidity by not understanding NC's precise analysis of the inherent flaws of capitalism.
Just bc u$a's institutions have buried any critique of capitalism does not mean their claims are accurate. Quite the reverse, in fact.
Move to Cuba ....then talk to me .
Remove the U.S. sanctions on Cuba, and then talk to me. Arrogant Americans, threatening everyone else's democracy and then praising themselves and their country for not oppressing themselves. Even then, you abuse and neglect each other near constantly.
Lame. The US has been embargoing Cuba for decades.
this old fossil, who has lived privileged life under free market economy, while at same time, as tenured professor, having extra protections and privileges has the ability to critic the system that made his cozy and well off. if he was for socialism, he the workers at the printing press, the truck drivers who deliver the book, the book shop employees, should all get the profits from his books. Most of the problems with our system is result of cronyism, corruption and corporatism and central planning at the FED which is populated by wall streeters. Let him move to cuba and then he can critic this imperfect system we have all he wants while waiting in a bread line.
He criticizes what hurts others. He readily admits that he's in a privileged position.
Stop trying to push that purity Olympics. He's an American criticizing with enormous accuracy the problems of his nation BECAUSE HE LOVES USA and wants it to stop being earth's bully and executioner.
Your love it or leave it argument only serves u$a's far right and violates the principles of speech freedom and open debate. Like cancel culture that much, why not move to N Korea?
A perfectly free market without government is something that can not exist, capitalism is always croney capitalism and has never not been.
