If I recall correctly Trump opposed the trans Pacific trade agreement an NAFTA!
i am curious who the hell is/was more informed and has more overview of whats _really_ happening now and what _really_ happened in the past, than Noam Chomsky.

Ordinary words start out as common property, which can be freely defined, used, related, and compared. When the words become politically sensitive, their meanings are privatized, so that they can only be manipulated according to a pre-chosen system of rules.
Common words already have an relation which controls how they relate. By creating a fresh word and designating its meaning, they control the way it relates.
Is that in Webster's dictionary?
Such a great video! This is exactly what coercive institutions don't want the people to know. Language is often times a divisive tool and we must learn to see what the reality behind it is.
I am not looking forward to life without him in the world. The light in the world will dim 😥
Plenty of bright minds and communicators like him, he just is one of the most famous. Seek and you shall find others.
He will be remembered forever.
Chomsky!!! Please don't die on us yet!!! We need you.
Chomsky always speak flawlessly.
One of my favourite language misuse examples was GW Bush's "Clean Skys Initiative". Depite it's title it actually allowed increased emissions and delays in enforcement of existing standards on pollution!
Another great video. All of your videos are very much appreciated!
Thanks for feedback. Much more interesting to come!
Gratitude to respond. Much interesting come more videos! Thanks!

This man is a saint. I love him.
Love this!
Thanks to wikileaks
what a cool man he is !
Language is a form of communication and interpretation
Love video
even the free market model is flawed with all the assumptions that go along with its premise, the worst being that the market must always expand and that utility (consumer happiness) can be bought at any cost that is possible. as mentioned in the video, though, one of those assumptions is that individuals are rational with indisputably rational choices, which obviously is actively being bent beyond all bounds by corporate entities. yet the model is often used by the very corporations that corrupt it as a kind of protective shield, for they know people would much rather say "i am an able-bodied, able-minded, God-willed (or free-willed) human being who is the master of my own choices" rather than "look, i've been a fool and i've been tricked". a part of this is plain and simple ignorance, but some of it is decisive denial.
We have a state-backed capitalist system in the US. The idea of free markets here is largely an illusion of the media markets who support state-capitalism as a rule.
How do we know this? When flaws in the "free market" nature of real-life trading begin to emerge, the system, via government subsidy and outright bailouts, covers the "gaps".
In the 2008 mortgage crisis, we began to see that collusion posing a systematic risk to the basic operation of the economy...or so we were told. In reality, it was reckless gambling by Wall Street that created ungodly losses that were than strapped to the taxpayers like a ticking timebomb.
The Fed didn't flinch to bailout Goldman Sachs and Co because they had already promised to back shitty mortgages (lent through quasi-governmental organizations like Freddie Mac) regardless of the mortgage-lending evaluation process (which was effectively null and void with "liar loans").
This so called lock down is scaring the liar and chief to the point he can't keep his mixing it up distractions right. His Trumpanzi's can't get enough units of satisfaction driving their internal combustion noisemakers for ego satisfaction. Everyone with BMI's over 30 could die in the pandemic, and that's his base. He'll be Mr. CAPITALWASM.
Folks should vote more often!
But when politicians don't seem to listen to their citizens on a broad array of issues, it's easy to get cynical and drop out of the process. This is what the neoliberal power structures work towards: they only want people accepting their narratives on politics to participate!!
6.39 - 10.42 ....spot on! shame we're living it right now.
We constantly do it that’s why it’s hard to recognize it once lost
Briljant video. Around 7:50 he talks about the efforts to create ill-informed consumers who make irrational choices. Hail the 'free' market.......
Live long, Master Chomsky.

This man speaks more truths than Jesus
In reality the things with rules are just games

He is talking about double speak.. Everything is a lie, even language is such a deceptive tool..
Yikes
I find his analysis very liberal - or rather anarchist I guess - especially in his characterization of the Soviet Union as just some kind of top-down Mordor-like state and Lenin as just a manipulative dictator. I totally disagree with that image. The Bolsheviks would never have been able to win the civil war against the White Army, militarily backed by every foreign capitalist imperialist state, without strong popular support; claiming anything else is ridiculous.
ZZZZZZZZZZZZZ I lasted 1.5 minutes
Of course, much of his social/political criticisms are astute and correct. At the same time, Chomsky seems deluded by his own magical thinking. Something like-- If only the Russian revolutionaries somehow had access to my wisdom, they would have successfully created a true communist utopia on Earth. Yeah, not so much, Noam.
constant zooming in and out on Chomsky is very, very obnoxious!
well, all i can say is i'm very happy the reporter didn't interrupt too much, or the camera focus on his bobblehead distraction
this is the most boring video I have ever watched. I tried to pay attention but his tone was not helping.
too bad for your consciousness, he's still intelligent as fuck
attention can be a heavy cost to pay for certain pieces of information, ensure you're working toward the enrichment of it so as to be able to afford the greatest of resources in the days to come
Next time, try changing the playback speed to 1.5x, it might help you pay attention. The information he is giving is worth paying attention to and understanding.
That is actually part of his point I think. We have been trained to value entertainment over content.
I love Chomsky's voice. His tone is so full of wisdom.
Try paying attention to what the man is saying and think about what the consequences of the remarks. You should probably start at an earlier point within the realm of the subject matter.
