    I think it's actually a very small segue with Chomsky, at least for his foreign policy (FP) writings. He's a linguist who took up an analysis of US FP-speak, comparing and contrasting it with the record (as it became publicly available) and with foreign reporting, and found a consistent underlying pattern which indicates that the US is a self-serving empire (to which thinking people today would say, "no duh").

  2. I don't think Ferguson is in any way anti-American in fact he comes across as a promoter of the US, I reckon the world would be duller place without the likes of Chomsky.

    "Noam Chomsky talks of the longstanding hostility of the rich to truly educating the public so they don't realize they are victims of an economic system they need to replace with one that truly serves the public.

    ...world renowned for being a communist asshole, just like you except for the world renowned part.

    Look communist, you are not some great intellectual, you don't have any special insight, you are just a communist from Brazil. Why don't you post on some communist board where people actually give a crap about what you have to say?

  6. Chomsky is not a communist and he has never espoused or promoted communism as a social and political ideolgy. It is clear you have no idea what a communist is but use the term as an all purpose word to describe anyone who advances criticism of the American establishment.

    You are a feebleminded dimwit. How you ever learned english and gained the ability to type on a keyboard to express your primitive opinions is sure to inspire hope among therapists working with victims of severe traumatic brain injury.

    SouthAmerica: Reply to Mav88

    You really hurt my feelings with your comments.

    Should I cry?

    Hah, hah, hah....


    PS: You seem to give crap about what I have to say, since you still reading my postings after all these years.

    I don't give a crap about what you have to say, and I don't read any of your postings on this forum.

    I just read this one because you posted your childish and silly comment where I posted some info about Noam Chomsky.

    Your comments shows that besides you being a very ignorant person, you also have the intellectual level of a 5-years old bully on the playground.

    Yes he is, libertarian socialism is in fact communism. Everyone should study his lecture on 9/11, and if you still think this lunatic isn't simply another leftist prick, then consider yourself one.

    If you ever get the inspiration to actually know something before you type, let me know, we'll get you a party hat. Until then you mouth breathing cretin, piss off.
