I was told long time ago I finished High School. I had indeed failed every grade from kindergarten to senior High but there comes a time to leave the classroom
Autisme Quebec says "Autism is what you are not who you are" and Chomsky is a Socratic not a Yousef.
Dr Theresa Tam was Health Canada information Czar and she still is Canada's Covid Information
Czar. I went berserk and batshit crazy the first time I heard Dr Fauci spout his PR speech. I am not a DR of anything and rely on the information of people I assume are experts and I knew Dr Fauci was a suit not a scientist when he talked about the past. I had the human genome map on my computer and I understood from a friend the lab science of virology. Dr Chomsky is twenty years my senior and is not autistic. My most relevant public intellectual in understanding my cognition is the English philosopher Eugenia Cheng. I don't think linearly I make interconnections.
I have long admired Dr Chomsky he thinks logically but even logic is often in error.
My parents were told over sixty years ago I was a genius in logic and linguistics and I had the same vocabulary I have now. Today's go to linguistic philosopher is Steven Pinker and I am sure he would say about Chomsky what Sir Isaac Newton said in the 17th century: We are standing on the shoulders of giants.
My wife never finished High School she was offered a Scholarship to the University of Chicago after her junior year. My wife wanted to study medicine they said they wanted science teachers. Chicago disbanded its department of Education its there to train not educate.
There is a difference; training comes before work, education is a lifelong process.
America sells sizzle . Chomsky sells steak but sometime steak makes poor sizzle in the media.
I think Chomsky is still learning and too many Americans stopped learning when they receive a piece of paper telling them they know everything they need to know.
I know pseudo intellectuals. I used to hang out on the campus of the Uof C and I pretended to be an intellectual and I am a star. I know all your BS.
I've just introduced my wife to Mark Twain and Benjamin Franklin and she is 84 , a Dr of Philosophy i n education and determined to keep reading the rest of her life.
I make mistakes everyday because as John Ralston might say " Cynicism is democracies greatest threat" and sometime we need to trust.
Chomsky makes mistakes only the dead are perfect.
What did Mark Twain say:
"Conservatism is the fear filled worship of dead radicals."
Dr Tam told us to vaccinate but Covid would become endemic because you can't kill something that isn't alive and like the universe continues to evolve.
Fauci played a scientist on TV . It is the way of the metaverse reality becomes fantasy and fantasy reality.
Finland and Poland know Russia. America Britain and Stalin created the Soviet Union in Potsdam in 1945 but Russia is an Empire not a nation state and I fear America is exactly the same.
It will be a VERY sad day when Professor Chomsky will leave us, he is one of the last clear thinking truth tellers that hold a mirror to our faces for being hypocrits. He, like Howard Zinn refused to accept that our governments 'rewrite history'! What an exceptional human being (without these and in other fields, f.i. Beethoven, Mozart, Monet etc. it would not be worth spending time on this planet!!)
We don't even know what to call ourselves anymore, those of us who do not support the actions of the Oligarchs, not that we have any say in the matter. Those of us who refuse to subject ourselves to the brainwashing of the establishment. They have very intentionally worked to co opt any attempts we make to unite and identify ourselves to each other in order to try to take some actions even just to 'express' our dissent. And now our dissent has been named criminal activity by the president of the U.S. and we are all under threat for non compliance just by existing as Americans who do not agree with or support their actions.
Such clarity from Noam - and he mentioned two specific cases of interest to me. (a) Howard Zinn. A first cousin in AZ gave me his book - A People's History of the US (1980 edition) when I was visiting in AZ. in 1999. And then giving an address on my experiences to date then - in teaching in Japan - at ASU to a graduate class - their teacher mentioned having just been at a national conference at which she'd been speaking with Howard Zinn. I finished his book back in Japan - and wrote to him - the most honest book on US history I had till then come across - and he was generous to reply and to let me know there was a more recent edition of around that time. And (b) - re the "crucifixion" of Jeremy Corbyn - by the attack dogs and Jewish lobby within the Labour Party. And as Noam said - aided by The Guardian. I could scarcely believe it when a good guy Australian comedian and otherwise advocate against injustice (esp in the field of dis-ability) with a To-night-style BBC TV program "The Last Leg" featured week-after-week ridicule and scorn heaped upon Jeremy C - but then also an entire anti-Russian jocular rhetoric as well. This latter no doubt part of the "guidance" via BBC management permit! I have been following (from Australia - and other parts) the writings and commentary of Noam Chomsky for nearly 40 years now. Thanks, Chris. Looking forward to Part II (and hoping there might be a Part III already)! PS I've finished reading Ray Nayler's amazing Sci-Fi book - and I am well into Gabor Maté's book - out of your recent interviews!
My problem is that Westphalia under leadership of the Holy Roman Empire created the Russian Empire out of Ukraine because Ukraine was not an Empire just land lots of land under starry skies above from Ireland to the Ottoman Empire.
I am 74 and I am autistic but if I may disagree just a little with Noam Chomsky I think he missed a significant historical event the destruction of Vilnius and liberal democracy in 1794.
In 1755 Dr Samuel Johnson a racist English conservative philosophy and Linguist called the Cabbalists the wisest of the wise. in his Dictionary of the English Language.
My father wanted me to be an intellectual but I failed public school because the authorities said I was a lazy genius. Truth is I am just learning to write I can't manipulate a pen or pencil and I write on a playlearn keyboard.
I think I understand Professor Chomsky, he uses the language I spoke 60 years
My father had a fine Catholic education and could lead the prayer services in his store front Chabad synagogue well into his eighties but taught me all religions are the same. My father was a Deist and a Secular Humanist and understood how history is written and who writes it.
I do not understand the use of liberal and conservative no one is as conservative as America's liberal class.
Try teaching Darwin's theory of natural selection to design enthusiasts. The math and the science fall on deaf ears. Yet all I hear is how the ACLU hates bill 21 which says Religion is a threat to liberal democracy and Freedom from religion safeguards liberal democracy it doesn't threaten it.
Cotton Mather the great American education philosopher hunted witches some of whom were probably much like me.
We didn't fly the Maple leaf or the Red Ensign in our school we flew the Union Jack and sang God save the Queen and the English could no wrong they were God['s gift to civilization.
The English Civil war was a bloodbath and the Irish Famine was a genocide and there were no Jews in England from the Crusades to the rule of Cromwell.
I listen to Chomsky regularly but it is always one's own history that seems to get in the way. The Deism of Franklin and Voltaire began in Vilnius in Lithuania not in London Paris, Athens or Rome.
It began with math , science and logic and that is a crime against the gods and the Republic she represents.
Ben Franklin wrote America's enlightenment history and was cancelled three years after his death.
All men are created equal was after all a slip of the tongue a simple linguistic misunderstanding.
Thank you very much. It is never explained WHY such pathological hate of democratic capitalist Russia and total support of Nazi-dominated Ukraine government !!
Roots for this propaganda predate the Russia-gate FBI-DNC hoax and FBI 2020 election theft.
Stand with Russia – it fights for all of us against bipartisan fascist US/UK warmongering clique.

Chomsky,Zinn,Assange,Hedges...am I missing anyone ? Thank you Chris and Noam for this interview and your continuing lifetime of using truth against imperial lies.
The hypocrisy of Chomsky is incredible. Just look at his statements on the vaccine mandates. Absolute hypocrite and institutional sycophant.
Chomsy's batting average is so far above almost everyone and for so long a span that this comment cannot be taken seriously.

There were Empires before nation states.
Germany is almost a century younger than America.
I can't imagine my life without Noam Chomsky.

I have no idea what kind of message you are trying to convey. Its all the same power structure and you chose some character as a truth teller.
I know I am not all that bright but if you could explain the meaning of your words with some context I might be able to decipher their context.
Maybe we could do in the context of linguistic evolution.
What are you trying to say?
What you are writing is not English.
Might I suggest Steven Pinker on how to write English.
Maybe the: Thinking person's Guide to Writing in the 21st Century.
About strange nude man attack on Pelosi: Paul Pelosi was most likely attacked by a male prostitute
An unavoidable conclusion about Paul Pelosi
1. Assailant in his underpants
2. Paul Pelosi knows his name and tells police he’s a “friend.”
3. Assailant asks “where’s Nancy?” to make sure she’s not home.
4. Pelosi takes bathroom break from spat and makes 911 call
Conclusion: This guy was a sex partner or male prostitute!
Time to take your meds and stay away from my comments.
Chomsky,Zinn,Assange,Hedges...am I missing anyone ? Thank you Chris and Noam for this interview and your continuing lifetime of using truth against imperial lies.
Enjoyed that, very interesting!
